Vanessa Van Noy

YOGA INSTRUCTOR

Vanessa Van Noy has been teaching in the NY metro area for nearly 25 years. She has worked with pro and collegiate athletes, people with physical limitations, and everyone in between. She specializes in creating practices that are fluid, functional and fun. She encourages humor & compassion, perseverance & perception, love & laughter. Her training as a Certified Thai Yoga Massage Therapist allows her to be very hands on in her classes, using touch as a way to deepen a posture or just show a little love. 

Vanessa's classes are always a little bit different from the last. With music that motivates the body and lifts the spirit, her class environment is conducive to laughing one moment, or discovering your inner-self the next. It is always a flowing style, intelligently formulated to move toward some fabulous postures with comfort and ease. 

Vanessa is also the founder of “Headstands for Hunger,” an annual yoga-based community event that feeds hungry people and homeless pets in Monmouth County, NJ.
