Meg
Meg's training in yoga, dance and physical therapy have equipped her with the knowledge and creativity required to address the complications of bodily living in these technological times. Yoga can help you heal from an injury, recover from mental and physical illness and develop the discipline to keep going.
Jill
Jill has been practicing yoga since 2009. She completed her 200 hour teacher training in Miami, Florida in 2013. She taught vinyasa and hatha style yoga for a few years until she discovered the brilliance of Iyengar Yoga. Since 2014, Jill has been a dedicated Iyengar yoga student. She enjoys a home practice which includes elements of both Iyengar intelligence and the flowy creativity of vinyasa. She loves teaching students of all levels. Jill's goal is to complete her Level 1 Iyengar Teacher Certification in 2026. When not practicing or studying yoga, she enjoys hiking, kayaking, land-based whale watching, playing with dogs, game nights and karaoke.
Diane
Diane's introduction to Iyengar Yoga began in 1988. When her children were young and as a busy, working mom, she found solace in Iyengar yoga - a source of restoration, invigoration, comfort, strength, and balance. Throughout her life, yoga has been a means to reinvent herself. Diane's teacher training journey began when she was living in Walnut Creek, CA. After completing the course for the 200-hour RYT (registered yoga teacher) in 2020, she and her husband returned to their home in Ferndale WA. As the pandemic restrictions were lifted, she began practicing and teaching with Meg at Whatcom Lotus Yoga. Most recently, she completed a ‘Yoga For Arthritis’ teacher training, and is
excited to share this compassionate approach to yoga with our
yoga community.

Mika currently teaches on Monday nights, select Saturday mornings, and is studying teaching philosophy and practicum with Meg. She is new to Iyengar Yoga but eager to learn and study the beloved style of yoga that has shaped many of the students at Lotus Yoga. Her classes are wonderfully inventive and FUN. Her Hatha Flow and Stretch Class is a beginning to intermediate level flow class that balances strength building sequences with creative stretches and classic yoga poses.
