Skanda Yoga is an alignment-based power vinyasa style created by Ken von Roenn, who is originally from Louisville and graduated from Yoga East’s teacher training program with honors in 2002. Named for Skanda, the protector of the celestial realm, this yoga invokes the warrior spirit for a challenging, inspiring, and transformational practice and sets a physical and spiritual intention that aligns with nature’s cyclical patterns. Each Skanda Yoga class is a unique exploration of asana.

Level - Intermediate or Advanced

Instructor Bio: Nerissa Sparkman has been an avid yoga practitioner for 14 years and has traveled and lived all over the world. You can usually find her with a yoga mat in one hand and camera in the other. She was initially drawn to yoga through her meditation practice and found herself studying in her hometown of Louisville, KY under the amazing teachers at Yoga East, including Ken Von Roenn III. When she moved to Miami from London, England three years ago there was no question in her mind where she wanted to practice, or who she wanted to practice with. Skanda’s co-creators, Ken and Lina, have been amazing mentors, guides and teachers. It was their dedication, energy and style of yoga that finally moved her to want to share her yoga practice with others as a Skanda Yoga teacher, and so she completed her training with Ken and Lina in 2014. Moving back to Louisville, and teaching Skanda in her and Ken's hometown seemed only fitting and natural. www.Facebook.com/Nerissa.Sparkman
