Requirements:
We ask that you have had at least two years of dedicated yoga practice including a daily asana practice during that time. Students must have a sincere desire to deepen their own knowledge and practice and a wish to share that knowledge through teaching others. We also welcome students who do not necessarily want to become teachers.

The course includes much outside reading, writing and practice so we ask that you come with the time and willingness to immerse yourself in study during these seven months.

She has also studied in the Kundalini and Jivamukti traditions. Hunt opened Samadhi Yoga Center on Capital Hill with her husband Steve Davis in April 1999. Her extensive experience in dance performance, choreography, improvisation as well as Native American Shamanism all helped shape her innovative vinyasa yoga technique and teaching method.

Patti has taught Hindi at the Univ. of Washington and also teaches Hindi and Sanskrit at the Seattle Language Academy and privately.

Patti has been to India numerous times for study and continues to travel there often, leading groups on spiritual excursions. Patti is a rich resource for students in the study of the philosophical and historical aspects of yoga and shares the secrets of integrating it with the more physical practices.
