Angelique Raptakis is an E-RYT500 Yoga Teacher, YACEP, Reiki Master, and Community Herbalist who looks to nature for inspiration, weaving its lessons into her classes. She believes that through the practice of yoga, we can more easily come to the connection between our body, our breath, our mind, and the universe we find ourselves in.

Angelique has been practicing yoga for over 10 years. Yoga has helped her recover from injuries, work through grief, and manage anxiety. She enjoys working with people to facilitate a state of balance and connection between mind, body, and spirit, from the physical/material body to the energetic subtle body, through the use of asana, pranayama, and meditation.

She completed her 200-hour training with Sky House Yoga in 2016 as well as an advanced 300-hour training in April 2019 with the Bhagavata-sevaya School of Yoga. In addition, Angelique is a Certified Grief Yoga® Teacher and has completed over 60 hours of training in Restorative Yoga, over 100 hours of training in Yin Yoga, a Yoga Nidra training with Kaya Mindlin, and the Surviving Assault (Yoga Essentials as Early Intervention Following Assault or Trauma) course with Diana Tokaji.

Rob Phillips teaches yoga with an emphasis on simplicity, precision, and attention to the present moment. In his classes, even when you're working really hard, you'll be doing so from a place of calm awareness. His flow classes draw inspiration from classic styles like Ashtanga and Iyengar, but he also specializes in the much slower practice of Yin Yoga, which uses long-held poses to access deeper tissues, and provides an ideal place to learn mindfulness.

Rob’s teaching experience spans over 10 years and thousands of classroom hours. His training includes a 300-hour level certification in Yin Yoga with Josh Summers as well as a 200-hr level with Natasha Rizopoulos through YogaWorks. In addition to his asana practice, Rob has a deep passion for Insight Meditation and a true love for all Buddhist practice and philosophy. 

Yael loves delving deeply into what heals us, what helps build our resiliency, and what allows us to be courageous and active agents in our communities. To that end, she began practicing yoga 25+ years ago while doing organizing with immigrant communities, and became a teacher in 2006 as a way to bring healing to those on the front lines of creating a more just world. She soon fell in love with Yin Yoga, studying with Paul Grilley, credited with creating Yin Yoga and an expert in functional anatomy; Sarah Powers, who popularized Yin Yoga by integrating it with both mindfulness and Taoist meridians; and Biff Mithoefer, who incorporates storytelling and shamanic teachings into his teachings.

As a yoga therapist and seasoned facilitator, coach and energy worker, Yael offers group and one-on-one sessions in clinical, educational, community and faith-based settings. She serves as core and guest faculty of several 200 hour and advanced yoga teacher trainings and is a voracious reader and life-long learner, most recently doing cadaver dissections with Gil Hedley and a yearlong program with Dr. Gabor Mate in Compassionate Inquiry.

Aida (she/they) turned to the physical practice of yoga to find some relief from the busy and demanding work in the service industry. Soon, the daily asana practice evolved into a holistic spiritual practice. Yoga allowed her to calm her chronic depression and anxiety, and it ignited a life-long process to work through trauma and rediscover her self-compassion. Aida is an artist and an educator and uses her creativity to invite playfulness into her yoga teachings. Aida's classes can be described as grounding, empowering, and meditative. Since 2021, she has been teaching mindfulness and yoga to children, adults, and older adults, inviting everyone from all backgrounds and abilities to find rest, peace, and connection to their breath, body, and spirit.
