You are the earth.
You are the sky.
Specializing in yoga nidra and practices that lead us into the spaces of deep knowing and heartfelt experience, Fannie leans on the wisdom of the Earth, her colleagues and loved ones, and the Sri Vidya spiritual tradition (a 5,000 year-old living tradition of the Himalayan Masters.)
With over 20 years of experience practicing yoga and meditation and 15 years teaching, she holds many certifications through ParaYoga, where she studied extensively with Rod Stryker. She continues to study and practice at the Himalayan Institute and with colleagues, friends, and mentors such as Chanti Tacoronte-Perez and Tracee Stanley.
She aims to uplift the caliber of modern yoga, and continue to illuminate all that yoga is.
