Tracy Vacura
Yoga Instructor
Instructor, Teacher Trainer, Studio Manager
I believe yoga is a time for deep connectedness—body, mind, spirt, and universe all in one. I spent decades teaching dance, which means that I love fully-embodied movement and also feel passionate about understanding anatomy and alignment. I enjoy working with people to center, find what is truly important, and then magnify their own unique gifts in the world.
Currently, I am a Certified Healing Touch Practitioner through Healing Beyond Borders, and awareness of the energetic body informs my teaching greatly. I earned my 500 RYT at Devanadi, so my teaching style is influenced by Tanya Bogenzhein’s unique blending of ancient yogic wisdom, energy healing and Ayurvedic therapy. In 2017, I completed a 9 month program of intensive Yoga Studies with Ben Vincent and continue to seek out his calm wisdom. I also undertook an amazing week-long anatomy intensive with Judith Lasater in 2019.
Partnering with Shelley to create the Holistic Yoga Teacher Training and Personal Transformation program has been an amazingly fulfilling experience. As a teacher, I love to help people find tools to feel and live better—through breathing techniques, tapping into our own wisdom, smart alignment, and just changing our perspectives. The community and energy at Yoga Sanctuary are saturated with kindness and I love being part of it!
