Linda Ferrato has been teaching dance and fitness for over 25 years and yoga for 5 years. She has both a B.F.A. and M.F.A. in Dance and has been AFAA certified since 1989.
Dabbling in several styles of yoga, she now studies regularly with her teacher in Cleveland (Karen Allgire, Junior Intermediate II Iyengar certified) and attends numerous workshops throughout the year.
               
After retiring from dance, Linda gravitated to yoga and its similar mind-body connection, but what she found was yoga would have as many benefits for the heart and spirit as it did for the body. The asanas (poses) were a means to a possible different end. The lessons on the mat carried on off the mat and the inward journey found through the practice affected the outward life.
            
A dedicated teacher, Linda is very pleased to be joining the Yoga Lounge staff.
