Amey Mathews has been a student of yoga since 1993, and her love for the practice grows deeper and deeper
every day! She began studying yoga as a student at Stanford University, and is always searching out ways to continue
her yogic education. Over the years she has studied Iyengar, Vinyasa, Ashtanga, Anusara, Jivamukti, and Kundalini
styles of yoga. "My goal as a teacher is to create an environment in which students feel safe, challenged, and enthusiastic
about the many riches that yoga has to offer. Yoga is an optimistic discipline, which asserts that we all have
vast potential beyond our current state. For me, the most exciting thing about yoga has been the process of
watching this potential blossom in my life and in the lives of students in my classes." Amey teaches with an
emphasis on the philosophy and concepts behind the postures, and works with montly themes from yoga philosophy
that are blended into each class. She is also the co-moderator of the
Santa Cruz Yoga Book Club.
She received her first certification from the White Lotus Foundation in 1999, and in 2004 she
completed a 110-hour teacher training program with her primary teacher, Kofi Busia.
Amey offers her humble gratitude to the many amazing teachers
who have guided her practice; most notably Kofi Busia and Sharon Gannon & David Life.

Nancy Finley
brings experience from a wide range of disciplines and geographies. Trained as an architect in Japan, she has developed a creative awareness
of the physical body and the sociological and cultural implications of human movement in the environment. In Germany she trained in Eurythmy, and
is a licensed Feldenkrais practitioner (a somatic modality of movement and observation) through the Feldenkrais Guild of North America. Her
background in Hatha yoga is influenced by BKS Iyengar through the guidance of Senior Instructors Ramanand Patel and of recent with Kofi Busia.
In 2006, she completed Kofi Busia’s teacher training course. She was first introduced to yoga in 1974 in San Francisco, and was reintroduced to
its practical wisdom in 1995 while living in Japan. Environment and Self are linked through a willingness to explore mutual awareness; in a
consistent practice of yoga this linkage opens up and shifts towards the subtle. She offers some steps along the way towards this union.
