Zion Yoga Retreat: September 2024!

Erin Widman has been a teacher and former owner of The Yoga Experience, a yoga studio in Flagstaff, Arizona, that has offered top quality yoga instruction for over 25 years. 

Through the systems of Iyengar, Ashtanga and Anusara Yoga, Erin has learned the necessity of proper alignment, the delights of a flowing sequence, and the potency of our heart’s intention. In her classes, she blends these three aspects of yoga while speaking directly from her experience of over 25 years of personal practice. Expect powerful sequences, deep internal impact, and life-inspired personal contemplations that catapult you into the power of possibility.

For Erin, yoga is a way of life; it is an avenue for self-discovery and the impetus to live a good, sustainable life. The brilliance and philosophy of yoga transformed and inspired her view of all that a good life entails. She brings an enchantment with the metaphor of poetry and her desire for a good life into her teaching. She encourages students to enhance their physical awareness, strength, and health while discovering their own needs, intent and creative expression.

She has been teaching since 2000 and is the author of Sleeping Bag Yoga: For Hikers, Bikers, and Paddlers.

Cheryl Walters has been teaching and sharing the gifts of yoga since 2001. She is a Yoga Therapist, certified by the International Association of Yoga Therapists and has been the director and lead instructor for Yoga Intensive Studies Programs and Yoga teacher training for Yoga Alliance in the Prescott area for over 13 years. She has trained over 160 yoga students to become yoga teachers and continues to mentor yoga teachers and yoga students worldwide.

What separates Cheryl from other yoga mentor’s is her credibility & 20 years of experience with teaching yoga to different populations (Yoga for Vets, 12 Step Yoga, Yoga for M.S, PTSD & Trauma survivors, Healing from Body Image & Disordered Eating through yoga) and her years of being a successful professional yoga teacher and studio owner. Her guidance is rooted deeply in the belief of everyone’s infinite potential for greatness, never doubting the power of LOVE and never forgetting that our birthright is JOY!
