Joy Polefrone

Joy fell in love with yoga ten years ago and has been teaching for the past seven years in beautiful Charlottesville, VA. She has been fortunate to find wonderful teachers both in Charlottesville and beyond who have shared with her the alignment principles of Iyengar, the structure and strength of Ashtanga, the flow and grace of Vinyasa, and the depth and richness of Yin Yoga practices. She aims to blend these styles into a practice that suits the aims of her students and the energy they bring to the mat. With a playful heart and compassionate mind she aims to approach practice with a lightness that allows for exploration and delight, in both its complexities and simple pleasures.
