About Rosemary

Rosemary, E-RYT 500, teaches a strong and deeply compassionate Vinyasa Flow class. 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 emphasizes the breath, intention, mindful alignment… and ultimately, the cultivation of energy and awareness. It is her experience and belief that a consistent practice offers the practitioner a pathway to his or her own divine, radiant nature. Rosemary has taught private yoga in San Francisco for nearly two decades, and has led numerous retreats around the world.

In 2024, Rosemary will be returning to Mexico at the end of March for her 14th annual Haramara Retreat. This fall, she will journey to Boonville, California for the Wild Women’s Yoga Retreat at Bell Valley. Also in 2024, Rosemary will offer the sixth annual 200 Hour Teacher Training at The Pad Studios (Yoga Alliance Certified).

Featured by CBS LA for her annual Calistoga women’s retreat in “Best of LA – Ladies Only Sports,” her retreats draw dedicated students from all over the world. Her popular DeLoach Vineyard Wine & Yoga retreats have been featured in the New York Times Travel Section and Food & Wine Magazine. She has been invited by the Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC) to teach a yoga wellness session to attendees at the AAMC’s Annual Meeting at the Marriott Marquis in San Francisco, and was also asked by Robert Wood Johnson Foundation’s AF4Q (Aligning Forces for Quality) to host a morning yoga session for the attendees of their National Meeting in San Francisco. Rosemary currently teaches private yoga classes in-home as well as studio classes at The Pad Studios and leads a number of popular yoga retreats in California, Mexico, and internationally each year.

 

Yoga Background

Rosemary’s yoga journey began with her beloved teacher Tim Miller on the rigorous path of Ashtanga Yoga. She devoted herself to Mysore practice for years, developing a solid, traditional foundation. Further exploration guided her to the dance of Vinyasa Flow Yoga which she found beautiful, creative, and alive to the needs of each individual. She then began practicing with an amazing array of teachers within the yoga flow lineage including Dharma Mittra, Shiva Rea,  and Tias Little, learning increased depth and subtlety within the practice. After teacher trainings with David Swenson, Erich Schiffman, a Yoga Alliance Certification, and a myriad of other trainings, she began her teaching career in 2004. She also completed the Ashtanga Primary Series Teacher Training with Tim Miller in January 2012.

A lifelong explorer of the inner realms, Rosemary has also practiced Vipassana and Zen Meditation and is an ongoing student of the Diamond Approach, a school of depth psychology and eastern mysticism. Off the mat, she lives her practice playing in the wilds, finding joy with friends, tending bees with her partner… and watching the light change.
