ANYA
Anya
​

A classically trained ballet dancer from Russia and long-time yoga instructor, Anya relishes the balance that yoga brings to the mind, body and spirit.  With over 10 years of teaching experience, Anya guides people from all paths to move in harmony with their bodies.  Anya was inspired to teach after the birth of her daughter.  Yin yoga helped Anya manage the pain post child birth from a hip injury that drugs could not heal.  Yoga is more than movement – the mental & spiritual journey that is tightly woven with the physical.  She delights in helping children and adult beginners discover yoga.  The most important thing to Anya is you leave class feeling connected to your heart and the island of Kauai.​​

Corey Patricia
Corey suffered from chronic neck and shoulder pain in her early twenties, but after one Forrest Yoga Class the pain subsided and she was drawn to the magic. Through continued practice, she has realized she doesn’t have to live in pain, both physically and emotionally.   With consistent reminder of a specific intent and breath, Forrest Yoga has allowed her to release stressful emotions and past trauma.  
She completed her teacher training with Ana Forrest and since then has been drawn to learning more about the energy anatomy of the human body.   This lead her to then study Bodywork and Reiki.  These practices are a means to communicating with another human being through the medium of Touch.  When Corey is not teaching, you can find her hiking with her dog or paddle boarding!
