Heather Hutcheson

Heather is a certified safe space holder, earning her Y12sr Certification in 2019.

Y12SR “connects the dots” between the ancient wisdom of yoga, the practical tools of 12-step programs, and the latest research on trauma healing and neurobiology. As part of a holistic recovery program, it works in tandem with traditional treatment to address the physical, mental and spiritual disease of addiction.

The program serves people recovering from all manifestations of addiction, from behavioral addictions to substance abuse – creating a safe place on the mat where trauma can be released. It also supports those who are impacted by a loved one’s addiction.

 
Heather earned her 200 RYT certification in 2015 at a Baptiste inspired program in Knoxville. She quickly fell in love with yoga when she first attended a basic workshop with her mother who had been begging her for years to try yoga with her. Heather is eager to share all the amazing benefits of yoga with her students through Power yoga. She truly believes that yoga is healing in all aspects of life and that it is all about progression not perfection. Heather has found that yoga practice truly brought her out of the dark and saved her life. 

 



Heather Hutcheson instructs the following:
  • Power Lunch
  • 60 minutes of power yoga offered at the lunch hour to fit in with your work schedule.

  • Warm Power Flow- PWYC
  • This class will fire up your strength and core as you practice proper posture alignment, flow through demanding sequences and build heat from within by connecting breath to movement. Building on a foundation of core strength, breath control and the meditative flow of Vinyasa, this inspiring practice will purify your body and mind while developing strength, flexibility, and endurance. The combination of the vinyasas, the heated room, and intentional focus creates a playful yet powerful environment. All levels are welcome. Each Warm Power Flow class is different. The poses are tailored to be appropriate to the yoga students in the class. The class is creative and playful allowing the students to experience more variety and try different postures.
     
    At Renegade Yoga Center we believe yoga is for everyone, and giving in order to receive is at the core of our values. That is why we offer our Pay What You Can (PWYC) classes.

    PWYC classes are not "free". Rather, they are your opportunity to, well, Pay What You Can. For some, that will mean paying less than a normal class fee (though rarely will that mean paying nothing) . For others, it will mean paying more than a normal class fee. Think of it as a chance to help your fellow yogis who otherwise could not afford it to participate.

    In short, PWYC is your opportunity to get what you need at a price you can afford, or to assist others to do so.


  • Sober Happy Hour - PWYC
  • Celebrate the end of the work week with mindful sobriety. All levels class and open to all comers. Come and practice with us and cash contribute what you are able. Namaste
