Tara Durnil, 500 RYT
Tara Durnil has been a student of yoga since 2013, when she began taking classes after the birth of her son. She fell in love with yoga, and it became an integral part of her life. This led her to receive her 200 RYT certification in June of 2019, under the study of Erin Smith, at The OM Place in Winchester Kentucky. She also completed her 300 RYT in April of 2020, under the tutelage of Laura Burkhart, through Laura Burkhart Yoga, focusing on structural alignment and safety. She believes yoga is for Everybody and Every Body, and that yoga will meet you wherever you are on your own life journey. She loves to offer challenging classes, while paying attention to safety through form, alignment, and modifications; then rounding it out with some self-care through breathing and longer held stretches. By degree, she holds a Master of Music in Vocal Performance from the University of Louisville, and her Bachelor of Arts, focus in Vocal Music, from Bellarmine University. She’s been a returning member of the Kentucky Opera Chorus since 2006. She has been with her husband, Michael, for over 17 years, and is the Mom to a viola playing college aged daughter and video game loving little boy, along with their two cats: Thor and Loki.
Testimonials
I absolutely love Tara's yoga instruction, and recommend her without hesitation. Her classes are both approachable and challenging. She meets every yogi where they are, pushing them to grow their skills while accommodating any needs or limitations. Her verbal instructions are clear, calming and informative, and she finds a way to offer corrections to improve your form without being critical. I take almost every class I can with Tara, and would follow her from studio to studio, as she has helped me to not only improve my yoga practice, but also my overall physical and mental health. Don't hesitate to take a class or private instruction with her!
- H. ChristmanI’m so grateful to have found Life Wind Yoga. Returning to yoga practice after several years away and an injury was less intimidating due to Tara’s teaching style. She encourages her students to begin where they are and adapt based on their abilities. As we progress she encourages us to challenge ourselves. Practicing yoga with Tara at Life Wind Yoga allows me to work on balance, flexibility/strength, and mindfulness all in one place. She has an awesome sense of humor that makes her classes a great place to be. Oh, and her playlists are amazing!
- R. HennessyTara is an amazing yoga instructor. When you are new she takes time before class to learn more about your particular needs and goals. She is a great verbal instructor with directions on the positions as you move from beginning to the end of class. I like how she explains as we go through the class what each position will strengthen in the body. She is always encouraging and assisting to make sure you are in correct alignment. I appreciate her challenging us just a little more each class and my body and spirit is always renewed after each class.
- J. BurdoineTara is an amazing yoga teacher. Her classes are available to all levels and she also offers modifications with an emphasis on safety. It’s obvious she loves yoga but even more importantly she loves to see her students enjoy the practice of yoga and enjoy all of its benefits.
- P. DavisTara brings her passion and energy to every class. She works to understand the needs of the student offering challenges and modifications as appropriate to honor your body. Her enthusiasm is contagious.
- C. HeadTara is real, she's able to give extra details if new students are in class, as well as giving challenges for those who want them. Each student does what they can with only small corrections if needed, so you are in proper form. Her music choices are fun too.
- T. Riley
