Sahakavi took her first yoga class around age 14 in Jakarta Indonesia under the direction of Arni Ramayana & fell in love with the body/mind union it created. As she traveled the world for the next 4 yrs with her family her practice grew and so did her interest . On her return she pursued yoga but was disappointed to find it not available in her area in the USA in the early 1970's so she @18 started on a private journey into what was to be a life long path. Soon attending college in Laramie WY, picking the school because it offered a Hatha Yoga class daily she began to earn her teaching degree to work with special needs children. Her work with them made her realize the importance and beauty in helping others achieve a better life. She then started to pursue a career in Yoga & alternative medicine and her research lead her to an array of well know teachers and studios . Studying under Richard Pitchard , David Swenson, Meg Wyan, P. Walden , Amy Right , Rodney Yee and of course our local Deva at Discovery and many many trips to Amrit Institute over the last few years . She left the public school system to work with Developmentally Disable Adults in early 90's. She found yoga again even in this population an excellent supplement for different physical and mental ailments, for her patients and herself. Ever since, she has become a student of Kirpalu , Anasura & Hatha methods of yoga and her teaching has developed from studies with teachers through out the USA & overseas . As a Special Education Teacher she holds a Degree in Health Science and an Associates degree as a Relaxation Therapist , Master Herbalist from Clayton College of Natural Health ,Master Teacher in Usui Reiki , 500RYT Kripula, 200RYT Hatha, 200RYT Liz Franklin Yoga In Chairs, Senior Yoga teacher & 200RYT Radiant Child Yoga . She has completed 4 yoga teacher training programs and is a dedicated student still to her daily meditation & yoga practice . She truly believes yoga is the answer, she keeps studying this ancient philosophy and through her teachers she teaches to others, wishing they feel to some degree what yoga means to her. Her main teachers are and will always be her special needs kids & her 1st teaching experience. Thanks to each heart that opened and allow me to enter. Sahakavi(D. Carpenter ) has been studying Yoga & bodywork for a total mat time of 17 years. The simple joys of breath & movement we take for granted that are so precious that we loose slowly as we release more to this sedentary automated life creates a deep desire in me to teach yoga more so now . For me, yoga has become more than just the physical poses: “It is about everything else it teaches you - focus, acceptance (of your own limitations and others’) and mind/body awareness.” My classes blend a strong component of body awareness, alignment, core strength and traditional yoga teachings of internal stimulation and breath work.~Namaste~
