Mary Morrow is designated as an Anusara-Inspired teacher.  This designation requires numerous contact hours and independent study as it prepares her for certification.  The Anusara style of yoga, begun by John Friend,  is an elegant system of yoga incorporating a heart-opening attitude along with Universal Principles of Alignment of the body.

Mary combines certification in Phoenix Rising Yoga Therapy with over seventeen years of study in yoga, body movement, and meditation.  She is registered with the Yoga Alliance as an Experienced teacher.  She is the founder of Laughing Cobra Yoga in Minneapolis, offering yoga classes, retreats and yoga therapy. 

Her yoga background also includes study with yoga pioneers Michael Lee, Judith Lasater, Rolf Sovik, and local professionals.  Ongoing study in Sanskrit chanting furthers her interest in practices which heal the body, quiet the mind and honor the sacred in life. 

A sensitive approach in adapting poses to each student's unique body characterizes her teaching philosophy.
