BIO
Rose’s first yoga teacher was her father, David Goldblatt, who has been teaching yoga since 1976. From the start, Rose loved how yoga stretched and strengthened her body. At the age of 15, she went to a class taught by Patricia Walden, a renowned Senior Level Iyengar teacher, and Rose realized then that yoga would become her life’s work. After nine years intensely dedicated to studying and practicing Iyengar yoga, Rose became the youngest person to ever receive an Iyengar Teacher certification in the United States. In the 15 years of teaching since then, she has completed 5 levels of this rigorous certification, traveled regularly to India to study directly with the Iyengars, and now nurtures an ever growing following of devoted students.
Namaste
Rose is indebted to all the Senior Level Iyengar teachers who instruct her, particularly Patricia Walden, Joan White, Janice Vien, Lois Steinberg, Manouso Manos, and Kevin Gardiner. She also recognizes Edwin Bryant for his work with her on both the Yoga Sutras and the Bhaghavad Gita. And finally Rose honors Mr Iyengar, whose work inspires her each and every day as a student and a teacher of the eight elements of yoga.
