Yoga Master - Why we are all here

Gerda Krebs, also known as "The Yoga Lady", began  teaching yoga in 1972 after completing her teacher training with Friedel Khattab. A year later Gerda brought yoga into the homes of many with her television show “Yoga Fits In”. This show ran on Shaw cable for 25 years and was often taped at her acreage, with regular appearances from her cat. Numerous students and many teachers have trained with her through the Gerda Krebs Hatha Yoga Centre.

To this day I still love to teach. I love to watch people come and practice yoga and to watch the improvement in their bodies and also their lives. It brings me much happiness to watch one of my students do a 'pleasure pose' such as pigeon or headstand. It brings pleasure to my eyes and pride and joy to my heart. I love to end each class with a saying that comes from the bottom of my heart: "Thank you for coming to my class. Without you there would be no class. Namaste".
