| Welcome. When we purchased the Prana Health and Yoga Center from Shay and Charles Cooper in November of 2008, we did more than buy a business. We inherited a legacy. Shay and Charles started Prana in 1990, and for 18 years they provided yoga and healing massage to hundreds of people on the North Shore. We hear memories all the time: “I took my first yoga class at Prana”, “I tried my first handstand at Prana”, “Shay taught me how to do crow.” “A friend brought me here in 1997 and I have been coming here ever since.” “Charles fixed my shoulder problem” and so much more. Our past teacher rosters read like a veritable “who’s who” of yoga instruction on the North Shore. Many of the area’s top teachers got their start at Prana, and we are delighted to say that several have returned to teach here at Green Tea. Who comes to Green Tea Yoga? Since we believe that yoga is for everyone, we’ll answer, “Everyone.” We have grandmothers, triathletes, grandmothers who are triathletes, beginners, seasoned yogis, runners, golfers, college students, you name it. We welcome everyone no matter where you are on the path. No matter what your intention, whether you come to work out, relax, stretch out, connect, or you really have no idea why, we welcome you. Our mission is simple. To share the healing gifts of yoga and massage with as many people as possible, and to help create a more peaceful and healthy community through and with these people. Namaste, Alicia Diozzi and Michael Mascolo |
