Teacher
Michelle Chen-Sparrow
Michelle teaches strong Vinyasa and Ashtanga classes rooted in the Eight Limbs of yoga, motivating students to challenge themselves with heart openers, arm balances, and inversions.
For the eight years Michelle spent at university, yoga was how she relieved stress. After graduating she took a demanding job as a pharmacist, stopped practicing, and found herself lethargic and run-down — convinced that if life was busy, it must be meaningful. In 2013 she returned to the mat to change that, and rediscovered her love of asana.
A love of travel deepened everything. In 2015 she left her job to travel the world for six months, taking in the Bali Spirit Yoga Festival and studying with renowned teachers, where she discovered Ashtanga. In early 2017 she traveled to India to earn her 300-hour Ashtanga certification at Tattvaa Yogashala and fell for the Eight Limbs of yoga — the mental and philosophical side as much as the physical. Today she teaches strong Vinyasa and Ashtanga classes that encourage students to see what body and mind are capable of; expect heart openers, arm balances, inversions, and a good amount of fun.
