Since 1999 Lindsay Fields has immersed herself in the study and practice of yoga. Her first and most inspirational teacher is Jimmy Barkan, creator of The Barkan Method. Jimmy’s approach to Hot Yoga (in the lineage of Bishnu Ghosh) opened Lindsay up to the healing benefits of yoga practice. Within just a few months of regular practice, she experienced dramatic results with a life long struggle with allergies and depression. Lindsay has explored many styles of yoga since but eventually returned to Jimmy Barkan to complete her 200 hour teacher training in the Barkan Method. Now, as her personal practice and education in yoga continues to grow, Lindsay’s offerings as a yoga teacher grow as well. Her ever-increasing knowledge of anatomy and the therapeutic applications of yoga, combined with her curious and adventurous nature has resulted in an expansive and creative approach to hatha yoga.
Lindsay’s teaching style is light-hearted and playful with an intention of providing students with a tangible reference of their potential for personal transformation. Her classes are sequenced as a flow of yoga poses linked with the breath (vinyasa) and provide students with a physical challenge appropriate for them. Modifications and hands-on assists are offered as a way to personalize the practice for each individual. Pranayama practice (yoga breathing techniques), creative visualizations and meditation are woven into the sequence making each class a potentially transformational experience. In Lindsay’s Hot Yoga classes, the room is heated to 85-95 degrees which allows for a deeper release within the body, lessens chance of injury, speeds healing and flushes toxins from the body. Lindsay’s students leave class feeling empowered to apply the lessons of yoga practice to their every-day lives.
