Teal
Marie Chimblo was
introduced to Transcendental Meditation when she was 5 years old sparking a
lifelong love for Meditation, Yoga and Eastern Studies. She taught
yoga from 1998 to 2008 in Houston, Texas, and has recently
relocated to Gastonia, North Carolina.
Teal's teaching is influenced by her wide inquiry in yoga. She has studied traditions including Kripalu, Sivananda, Kundalini, Ashtanga and Vinyasa, and Iyengar. In November of 2007 she was awarded a 200-hour yoga teacher certification from Kripalu Center in Stockbridge, Massachusetts. The 200-hour Kripalu Yoga teacher training is a rigorous program that provides teachers with a solid foundation in the technical skills needed to teach yoga safely and effectively. Kripalu Yoga teacher training conforms to the national standards of the Yoga Alliance. Teal is also a member of the Kripalu Yoga Teachers Association, International Association of Yoga Therapists, and The Yoga Teachers Association of Houston.
Blissful Body Yoga was developed in the spirit of Kripalu Yoga and is a conscious practice of physical yoga postures, breathing exercises and relaxation techniques for integrating body, mind and spirit.
Kripalu Yoga is a "come as you are" practice. A non-dogmatic approach that views yoga as a lifelong journey of self-exploration.
Devarshi Steven Hartman, Director of Professional Training at Kripalu Center, says, “Graduates of the program are in great demand for their in-depth knowledge, clear instruction, intuitive insights into each student’s needs, and their ability to guide students to the experience of knowing the Self, that is the true essence of yoga.”
