Teaching Yoga from the Heart

Rosemary teaches her yoga students with a gentle, yet strong touch. She seeks to create the fires of transformation with a physically intense and vigorous flow while simultaneously supporting her students with a warm voice and nourishing energy.  She believes the practice can uproot, heal and liberate – and that it can be done with minimal discomfort and a tremendous amount of grace.

Rosemary’s popular DeLoach Vineayard Wine & Yoga retreats have been featured in the New York Times Travel Section, and in Food & Wine Magazine.

She currently teaches at various yoga studios in San Francisco and Los Angeles, including International Orange, Yoga Works, and Yoga Tree and leads a number of popular yoga retreats in California as well as Haramara Mexico retreats each year.

Yoga Background

Rosemary’s journey towards becoming a devoted yogi and eventually, a yoga instructor began with the Ashtanga first series taught by famed Ashtanga yoga teacher Tim Miller. Hooked on yoga immediately, she devoted herself to the mysore practice and studied with Tim extensively. Years later, further exploration guided her to Vinyasa Flow yoga classes where she found the dance of Vinyasa liberating, beautiful, creative, and alive. She then began practicing with an amazing array of teachers within the yoga flow lineage including Max Strom, Dharma Mittra, and Shiva Rea, learning increased depth and subtlety within the practice – and within the practice of teaching.

After teacher trainings with David Swenson, a Yoga Alliance Certification, and a myriad of other trainings, she began her teaching career in 2004. Her most recent Ashtanga Primary Series teacher training has been under the instruction of Tim Miller, in January 2012.

Private Yoga Instruction

In addition to teaching her studio yoga classes, Rosemary teaches private yoga in Los Angeles and in San Francisco.

Rosemary offers private yoga instruction for injury rehabilitation, re-introduction to the practice after a long time away, initial introductions to yoga, for deepening an existing yoga practice, and for the increased scheduling flexibility that private yoga classes can provide. Rosemary works privately in yoga studios and in your own home, and she can work with you to determine how private sessions may be helpful to you and your practice.
