This season's fantastic teachers are:
Tim Base: Growing up Tim was quite removed from his body, always clumsy, and towering over his peers. Instead, he found comfort in his mind. He came to Kansas City in 2007 to care for his Grandparents, crossed paths with Sarah Kucera and began practicing yoga at Kansas Siddhi Yoga. The awkwardness of his youth returned when Tim was on his mat, but having the opportunity to observe his Grandparents shifted his perspective from embarrassment to one of reverence for the body-mind complex. He enjoys embracing the awkward everywhere in life to show gratitude to the Greatness we are all capable of attaining!
Kirsten Gustafson: Kirsten has been practicing yoga since 2002, and at Kansas Siddhi Yoga since 2007. Her relationship to the practice and in particular to this studio is one of deep gratitude. So far the journey has been staggeringly fruitful! Not to mention fun!! The more she learns, the more she wants to know and the more she knows the more she wants everyone to know. She believes this beautiful, ancient and many layered practice is accessible to absolutely everyone.
James Corazzo: When James began his yogic journey years ago, little did he know he would someday be teaching yoga to others. On a fateful winter day in 2004, he visited the original Kansas Siddhi Yoga location in Blue Springs, Missouri. There he met Gina Caputo, his first and most influential teacher, and he soon became a devoted student and seeker. His personal evolution has continued over the years fueled by a desire for continuous personal growth, a committed asana practice, and amazing teachers . A manifestation of Prana Flow yoga and the teachings, James has honed his ability to ride the waves of prana and to harness this energy to become more connected with the Universe, all beings within it, and to access an increased sense of Self realization. He has experienced first hand the transformative power of yoga, and wants to help other seekers tap into its limitless potential, on the mat and in every day life. James credits the teachings of yoga as having transformed his life, his attitude toward life, and how he perceives himself and others (a continuous work-in-progress, of course!). Through the yogic lens he can now see every new day as an opportunity to learn, teach and serve. Responding to a calling to deepen his knowledge and a desire to serve others, James completed his yoga teacher training through Kansas Siddhi Yoga in 2011 and is a Registered Yoga Teacher (RYT) through Yoga Alliance.
