ANNEMARIE PICARD
INSTRUCTOR
MY WHY
To share my love of yoga with others, making classes enjoyable for all body types and ages.
After practicing yoga for twenty years, Annemarie earned her certification in 2019. Although trained in the Hatha and Yin traditions, she finds joy in all forms of yoga. She is particularly fond of using props so that her students can develop better body awareness. Annemarie actively cues her students in the use of their breath to direct their yoga practice, hopefully leading them to find a sense of calm in a chaotic world. As she regularly tells her students, this is YOUR yoga practice. YOU get to choose your adventure. Annemarie lives with her husband Dave in Cheyenne and is mom to two kids, two Labradors and one ornery Siamese.
