| UNION/YOGA is the premier yoga studio in Northern Michigan, with our studio located in Leelanau County's charming little hamlet, Lake Leelanau. Sandra Carden is the director of UNION/YOGA, LLC. Sandy conducts classes and offers private Yoga Therapy and Embodiment. UNION/YOGA was established in 1989. Each teacher has been taught and certified by Sandra Carden or another qualified yoga teacher training program, and each teacher brings his or her unique gifts to the teaching.
Sandy's nearly 30 years of practice has evolved her teaching style to one that is eclectic, yet clear, precise and spiritual. Her greatest influences have been BKS Iyengar, Roger Eischens and Rama Berch, and she also credits Joel Kramer, Judith Lasater, Jean Couch and Beryl Bender with guiding her way with tremendous gifts and insights.
There have been dozens of other wonderful teachers along the way, from each of whom Sandy has gained jewels of wisdom. But the best teacher is one's own practice, and in that the style is always emerging. Sandy's teaching takes its shape primarily from her own experince of Rama Berch's Svaroopa ("Bliss") style, and the "Hi-Energy Yoga" of Roger Eischens. Sandy's teaching style is "yoga with heart." She weaves integrity of alignment, surrounded in an envelope of breath awareness, with intelligent assists and adjustments.
