Hannah was first exposed to yoga in 2001 at a University of Georgia power yoga class, where she ‘went somewhere she had never been before.’ Curiosity took Hannah on a decade-long journey, where she explored various forms of yoga and meditation. In the first 7 years or so, Hannah found herself only partially dedicated to a consistent asana and spiritual practice, and returned to yoga when needing guidance and balance. In 2007, in the height of studying for doctoral comprehensive exams, she walked into the CNY Yoga Center, and attended a Dharma Mittra Yoga class with Lorie Bebber. In that class – a combination of rigorous asana practice with pranayama, meditation and practical discussions of living an honest, spiritually-inspired life – Hannah learned what yoga was about – opening up to – and seeing Yourself. In the last two years, she has discovered the joy of a consistent practice of the 8-limbed yoga path. In June 2009, Hannah completed Dharma Mittra’s Life of a Yogi Teacher Training in New York City. She hopes to serve as an instrument of Sri Dharma Mittra’s simple, transformative teachings.

Hannah's flow classes are known for being relaxed yet challenging, based on Dharma Mittra's unique yoga tradition that cultivates a lot of energy through subtle, uplifting practices. Students describe feeling very much at ease in Hannah’s classes, as she’s nurturing, kind, thorough, and hands-on. She is very mindful about breaking down poses and explaining transitions to allow students to constantly improve upon their own practice. Hannah also works to make the most challenging poses accessible to everyone on some level. She leads by great example, and leads outreach programs to bring yoga to resettling refugees through YogaActivist.org.
