Annie Mahon, founded Circle Yoga and Budding Yogis to bring the practice of mindful yoga to children, families, and adults in the DC area. She especially enjoys weaving mindfulness practices with yoga postures and creating more mindfulness and compassion for our bodies. She trusts in the ability of these practices to bring balance and ease into her own life and she joyfully shares their gifts with her students.
Annie discovered meditation when she was a confused teenager, and mindfulness meditation became the center of her life in 1999 when she began studying with her main teacher, Thich Nhat Hanh. In addition to Thich Nhat Hanh, her main dharma teachers are Pema Chodron, Jack Kornfield, her four children, and the monks and nuns of Plum Village. more>>
