Charlotte began practicing yoga in 1996. She was an
avid ashtanga student for eight years. She studied with
the father of the ashtanga style, Sri K. Patabhi Jois and
completed teacher trainings with David Swenson and
Richard Freeman. She was introduced to Ansuara
alignment and philosophy in 2000, and completed her
first teacher training with John Friend, the founder of
Anusara Yoga in 2004. She has since completed
hundreds of hours of study with John, as well as master
teachers such as Deb Neubauer and Todd Norian.

Her teaching is also heavily influened by her studies with
the highly esteemed tantric scholars Douglas Brooks and
Paul Muller Ortega.

She ran the Johnson Yoga Studio in Johnson, VT, from
2003-2006, and has taught workshops throughout New
England. Since 2008 she has been teaching in her home
town, Blue Hill, Maine.

"Charlotte brings to her yoga a deep understanding of anatomy and physiology, paired with marvelous insight into the wonders of the natural world. I love that I leave her class feeling infused with a sense of place and order. I am continuly inspired by her classes."
- Midwife extraordinaire, Suzanne Norgang

" I have been studying with Charlotte for almost a year and Anusara yoga and Charlotte's instruction has changed my body, my attitude and my consciousness....Her classes are serious and playful at the same time, she challenges but also nurtures. I always leave class with a feeling of having been somewhere good, somewhere I want to return to. She brings out the best in all of her students, no matter what their level."
-Our favorite MPR DJ, Sara Willis
