Valerie Packe, a 500HR RYT in the art of Prana Vinyasa Flow graduated with a 200hr certificate in Maria Garre’s Affiliate Program in June of 2013. Valerie feels fortunate to be a practitioner at Ananda Shala since 2009 and attributes her teaching career to the awesome tribe at her home studio. She would like to thank to Aimee, Maria, Kristen and Dominica for the inspiration to pursue Teacher Training in such an amazing, transformational and positive atmosphere. She considers herself a student, follower and now, ambassador of Prana Flow created by Shiva Rea, a leading innovator in Vinyasa Flow. Valerie now offers Public Classes, Private Lessons and Samudra Online Assistance on Shiva’s global school of living Yoga, Yoga Alchemy. Valerie is inspired by her Teacher, Shiva to use Yoga as a means to attune to personal and universal relationships of the heart with a never ending mindfulness regarding the natural world. <3
