Gentle Journey as the name implies is a peaceful yet break- a -sweat practice intended to restore the body, mind and soul through purposeful breathing, meditation, stretching, basic warm up exercises that employ the use of light weights, and beginner yoga postures. With continued practice over time, the body, mind and soul will relax and be restored, and strength and flexibility will be attained.

About Sandi

sandiloganmayer — Tue, 21 Apr 2009 02:28:11 +0000

Sandi is a graduate of Yahweh Yoga, a Christian teaching academy located in Chandler, Arizona. Yahweh Yoga is also the first christian yoga studio in the world. Sandi is a certified Christian Yoga teacher and a Registered Yoga teacher with Yahweh Yoga and Yoga Alliance having satisfied the required 200 hour basic training.

In January 2008 she relocated to Arizona with her husband, Don, from Long Island, New York after working on Wall Street for nearly 30 years. She was determined to leave the hectic lifestyle demanded by New York City and Wall Street behind her, and find a more peaceful and satisfying way of life. After praying and asking for God’s guidance, God opened the door to christian yoga for her. Her journey began one morning when she saw a simple ad in Yoga Journal that simply stated, “Do you love Jesus? and, Do you love yoga?”

Sandi is a member of the Church at Sun Valley, and she is committed to the truths of the christian faith. Her passion is to share a proven method of self-care that fosters relaxation and restorative measures for the body, mind, and soul in a worshipful atmosphere that allows the practitioner to be Christ-centered on their mats. She believes that spiritual, emotional, and physical health in balance is the only way to enjoy total well-being.

Sandi and her husband live in the Festival Ranch community in Buckeye, AZ. She is the mother of two adult sons who also live in the Phoenix area. In addition to christian yoga, she is active in her church serving in several ministries. She loves the outdoors - gardening, the sunshine, the sea, the mountains, and traveling to new places. Sandi believes she is blessed to be a blessing.

Christ-centered yoga classes are being offered through the Church at Sun Valley. We are located 10 minutes from Surprise, off the Sun Valley Parkway, and in the Festival Foothills community in Buckeye, Arizona.

Should you be interested in experiencing Christ-centered yoga with us at the Church at Sun Valley, or through your local church, please contact Sandi at sandi@yogaforthesoul.org She would enjoy nothing more than having you join us in Foothills, or bringing Yoga for the Soul to your church.
