Connie's passion for the wisdom of yoga has grown over the past 21 years of regular practice. She is a Registered Yoga Teacher and a member of the Yoga Alliance. Also, Connie is a full-time psychotherapist in private practice in Orange, and an ongoing student of Buddhist psychology. Raised in New York City and San Francisco, Connie has lived in New England for thirty years, and rural New England for twenty. Connie studied Kundalini Yoga and Transcendental Meditation as a young woman. However, when she returned to both later in life, she studied Iyengar yoga and Insight or Vipassana Meditation. Her formal yoga training has been in Embodyoga with Patty Townsend at Yoga Center, Amherst. Connie and her husband, Mike Magee, bought The White Elephant in March of 2008. It was a Baptist Church, built in the 1840s and was sorely in need of repair. Despite that, Connie and Mike fell in love with the building and restored it with respect and appreciation. The yoga studio at The White Elephant is a calming, airy, light, warm and sacred space in which to celebrate the ancient practice of yoga. Come and join us!
