Jackie Morrison
Having completed my yoga teacher training in August of 1999 at the Kripalu Center for Yoga & Health, I could not have imagined the depth of what it would mean, or turn into for the next two decades. I did know that it was the first time something felt complete and divinely guided.
I had no doubt in my mind that I would go out and share this peace that yoga left me feeling each time I practiced. Twenty years later, numerous classes taught, many more trainings, retreats, yoga teacher trainings offered, opening my studio.. and the journey still continues. My practice is a life practice as is invited into all the moments of my life.
​
I couldn't be more grateful for that initial thought that said "try yoga" and the will within me to follow through, my first teacher Jim, who inspired me, Swami Kripalu, and Yogi Amrit Desai for providing me with a yoga home. So grateful for the teachings and love that has moved through me to be fully aware of how precious life is and how each one of us are filled with Divine potential. I am forever grateful.

Our Teachers
Chris Loma Fouhy
Chris (Loma) is a 200-hour certified yoga teacher, Reiki practitioner, Vibrational Sound Healer, Life Coach, and writer. She began practicing yoga as a teenager and joined LICY shortly after it opened as a student. In the spring of 2016, she completed her certification here at the studio and has been teaching ever since. Chris remembers deciding to begin the training at a time in her life when she felt out of balance. Gandhi’s quote, “Happiness is when what you think, what you say and what you do are in harmony,” inspired her to begin her journey in earnest. She was looking for transformation and the physical practice and teachings of the Kripalu lineage gave her just that. Her gentle yoga classes help to open space and increase flexibility in the body and relax and calm the mind. She finishes each session with Tibetan Singing Bowls, adding vibrational healing to the practice.
