Amy Garratt, ERYT 500 is a yoga teacher trainer, speaker and an international seminar presenter.  She and her colleague, Julie Byrd, are co-founders of Balance Your Body Yoga and Pink Ribbon Recuperative Yoga Training. 

Amy teaches group classes, private classes and corporate classes.  Amy began teaching yoga in the 90’s, drawing on a teaching background of pilates, fitness, dance and athletics. Her pursuit of knowledge about the human body and human performance have lead her to study different yoga styles, fitness programs and healing techniques.. Through her studies of human anatomy and physiology, she has developed a deeper understanding of muscular imbalances, and carefully crafted the strategies to adapt poses for any student regardless of their starting point. 

Drawing on the methods developed by Balance Your Body Yoga, Amy centers on balancing muscle structures and guides each student  in their search for health and wellbeing.  Students learn to connect deeply to their core, become stronger and feel centered and present.  

 Amy has developed the art to craft yoga classes that are relevant and beneficial for everyone from the recuperative level, to the weekend warrior and to the elite athlete.  She teaches yoga from an intuitive and highly developed understanding and respect of the complexities of the human body. With Amy's compassionate guidance and enthusiasm, students learn to adapt poses and exercises to achieve their goals from a safe, intelligent and well-laid foundation.  Through creativity, imagination and inspiration, she teaches to honor the wisdom of the body and work according to its limits and strengths..
