26-Amanda Reynolds and Channeling Your Inner Yoga Teacher
b'You might be muttering, \\u201cI don\\u2019t have an inner yoga teacher.\\u201d But please consider Amanda Reynolds\\u2019 words before submitting that verdict. She\\u2019s an amazing yoga instructor. I know because I\\u2019ve taken a lot of her classes. She\\u2019s compassionate, gentle, and encouraging. She empowers stiff students to open. If you interact with Amanda outside of the studio, however, you\\u2019ll be struck by her intense Ayurvedic Pita nature. She\\u2019s enthusiastic, active, focused, and competitive. She kids me that I\\u2019m a pita too. Guilty! Amanda\\u2019s story is relevant because her daytime job is to teach high school English. She uses her yoga background to channel, and at times mask, her intensity, build relationships, and engage students,'
