Teacher Feature: Get to Know Amber Vanbuhler

What I find most rewarding about teaching yoga is that I get to spread this amazing and wonderful gift that nourishes peoples’ bodies, minds and hearts.  I feel so honored that I am a vessel for this ancient wisdom to flow through and help change the world.

I love so many poses and feel as though they have all taught me a great deal about myself.  But since I must choose, Adho Mukha Svanasana (Downward Facing Dog) has taught me balance.  Balance is such an important aspect of life, and in this pose the upper half and lower half of the body are working/moving in true symmetry.  This pose has also taught me the power of not giving up, and to simply take a moment to pause and breathe.  To close my eyes and remember the gold that exists within me (and everyone) always.  Adho Mukha Svanasana is so empowering, and I love that it continues to provide a strong foundation and balance for my practice.
