Sam B Belyea

Sam has always had a long standing passion for movement so it was the physical aspect of the Yoga practice that initially captured her attention. However it was a deep resonance with the traditional teachings and philosophy that kept drawing her back to her mat. Conscious movement infused with breath soon became the anchor in her life, which touched her in a way she had never experienced before. Sam also became captivated and deeply touched by Restorative and Yin Yoga, which have been treasures in her own healing.

Inspired deeply by her teachers Tara Judelle, Scott Lyons and Noelle Connolly, Sam teaches rich yet playful classes that weave creative and thoughtful sequencing with poetic rhetoric and embodied philosophy. She also teaches deeply nourishing Yin and Restorative classes, offering a cocoon for rejuvenation and deep inquiry which she feels are necessities, not luxuries, in what can be a breathless paced world. In every class Sam holds an inclusive space for all students to slow down and move with conscious awareness, offering an exquisite landing pad to curiously explore, so the practice becomes a call to come home to themselves. In this way she feels the practice ultimately unlocks a place inside all of us that is inextricably bound yet inexplicably free.
