Experienced, Nationally Certified Instructor

Becky McCune has been teaching yoga since 1999 and has owned and operated Sun Ray Yoga since 2004. She is a 2001 graduate of the Southern Institute for Yoga Instructors and has an E-RYT 500 designation from the Yoga Alliance. 

Becky’s training and teaching is influenced by the teachings of BKS Iyengar, who places tremendous emphasis on correct body form and alignment.

While effective for all yoga students, it is especially effective for the mature student who may have special needs or specific body issues.

She also teaches a flowing style of yoga that is more athletically rigorous for those students seeking a faster pace and greater physical challenge. Rebecca’s primary teachers are Betty Larsen and John Charping.

She has also studied with Ramanand Patel, Patricia Sullivan and Rodney Yee and has been teaching since 1999. Her personal yoga practice began more than 20 years ago, born of a need to develop greater flexibility and deeper peace of mind.

Liz Campbell began her yoga journey as an Anusara student in 2001.  She graduated from the Ayurvedic Institute in June 2009, where she completed Yoga Teacher Training, registering with Yoga Alliance at the 200 hour level.  Liz, a registered nurse since 1979 retired from the Air Force in 2008 to devote her time and energy to teaching yoga.  The combination of yoga study and a nursing career gives Liz a unique approach to the practice and study of yoga and Ayurveda as pathways to better health.  Liz is a member of the Holistic Nursing Association and a member of the Association of Ayurvedic Professionals of North America.

In addition to teaching yoga, Liz offers lifestyle counseling using her nursing background to combine Ayurvedic recommendations with western medical science. Liz combines complementary aspects of these approaches to promote optimum health and wellness. Consults start at $100 for two one hour sessions and are $50 and an hour for follow-up visits. Private yoga sessions are also available.

Liz's philosophy and teaching method:
When I take students into a yoga session, I combine an understanding of yoga, Ayurveda, and nursing practice to facilitate healing.  I first bring students to a place of quiet and oneness so they are centered for the practice. We move through meditation, asana and pranayama in slow, mindful, subtle and powerful ways, moving into what Ayurveda calls Rasa Dhatu.  I take the class through techniques to ground Vata elements, and then work the breath to flow prana, releasing unhealthy holding patterns and reestablishing healthy neurological pathways.  At the end of class, I focus attention on how we are feeling after practice, and give suggestions on how to carry this off the mat, and into life.
