Pat Harpell

Pat Harpell has been practicing Yoga for almost 40 years.  An eRYT-500, she runs Yoga Teacher Training, retreats and continuing education programs throughout the United States and Europe.  Her classes are taught based on the needs of the students instead of conducting a pre-formatted practice.  Specializing in bringing yoga to the underserved, Pat has worked with prison populations, the homeless, those with traumatic and chronic injuries and illness and with the elderly.  She left the corporate world in 2004 to help bring the teachings of Yoga and herbalism to those who wish for a simpler, healthier life.  Pat is currently the director of the South Carolina Herbal Society and can be reached at www.SCHerbalSociety.com.

Pat's Gentle, Restorative Yoga class is a practice in being kind to ourselves.  Appropriate for advanced or first-time yogis, the class focuses on gentle, restorative movements, breath as conscious meditation and deep relaxation.
