Style of Teaching:

Terra’s group classes are a blend of ancient tradition with modern therapeutic variations that inspire people to find their own inner alignment through balancing the principles that create stability and ease in one’s own body and one’s life. She challenges people with different levels of ability, while being suitable for all levels. Terra fuses the esoteric with the scientific, yin with the yang and each class or program is designed to inspire you to maintain a conscious heart, an intelligent mind while you challenge your inner sense of balance, and an embodied presence of spirit no matter what life brings your way.
