Caron Bey

In 1984, while pregnant with her first child, Caron began a yoga practice at home. She will never forget how the gentle postures combined with the breathing exercises created spaciousness in her changing body. Twenty years later Caron found yoga again toward the end of her child bearing years when she became a single mother, post divorce. During this transitional time in her life, attending yoga classes became her safe haven for peace, balance and healing. Her practice began to open her heart, transforming her life. She learned that yoga will meet you right where you are. By listening inwardly, quieting the mind, we begin a process of honoring what our bodies, minds and hearts truly need.

 

She first earned her RYT -200 training in 2015 at Greenville Yoga where she studied breath-inspired movement with director and owner Elizabeth Delaney, who received her training from Max Strom and Sara Powers. Caron is certified by the Yoga Alliance and has over 1000 hours of teaching experience. Her love of being on the water propelled her desire to learn paddle boarding and paddle yoga, both of which she is certified to teach and teaches seasonally on Lake Keowee. During Covid -19 Caron continued to teach her yoga classes via Zoom.  

 

Caron’s children are now grown adults and she is happily remarried and lives in Upstate SC, where she and her husband are active in their church and community. Caron is a former interior and textile designer who still loves to create beauty in her immediate environment whether in her garden or in her sewing studio.

 

It is Caron’s deepest desire to inspire her students to connect breath to their higher selves through gentle movement and hopefully this practice will become a part of their lives. You can expect Caron’s classes to be easy-going and light-hearted; a space where you can receive love, care and personal attention in an environment promoting a comfortable practice at your own pace.
