A little about me

My name is Renee Tillinghast. I have wanted to be a teacher since the 4th grade. I have finally found what I am supposed to teach… Yoga! I am a mother of two wonderful children and a wife of  almost 30 years. I have a B.S. in Psychology and an A.A. in Culinary Arts. In the past I have had many jobs such as a paraprofessional, in the schools, for over 8 years and having my own catering business.

I love the Lord and about 7 years ago, He called me to be an ambassador of Christian yoga to New England. This unique style of yoga is great for anyone who would like to improve on all areas of body, mind, and soul. I have always believed in living a healthy lifestyle and now I can teach others how to as well!

So what is Christian Yoga?

First yoga itself is not a religion but a health methodology. Pilate’s and ballet are also methodologies. Yoga has been around since pre-historic times. It can be practiced by any religion or no religion at all. A little more recently Hindu and Buddhist traditions have codified this yoga to go with their theology. Christian yoga simply combines our theology with the methodology of yoga.

As Christians we are free to pray, meditate and use our bodies as forms of worship. Our classes will are Bible based and will include prayer, scripture verses, Christian music etc. All to glorify God. Think of it as a way for the body, mind, and soul to meet the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. I hope this journey of Christian yoga blesses you. Please feel free to contact me with any questions you have regarding Christian yoga or any other health and wellness concern. I’d be happy to help!
