About Sunterra Yoga
Sunterra Yoga is now offering private and group Equestrian Yoga sessions and events throughout the Laurel Highlands and Greater Pittsburgh regions.
Sunterra Yoga will travel to different locations and settings to accommodate group size, preference, and seasonal weather conditions. When outdoor venues are not possible, sessions can be held in any location that meets the needs of the individual or group.
Robin, the founder and owner of Sunterra Yoga, completed her 200-hour yoga teacher training in 2017 at Moonglow Yoga in Greensburg, PA.
Robin is a life-long equestrian and currently competes in Eventing and Dressage. Throughout her riding career, she often struggled with body mechanics in the saddle resulting in unclear communication with her horses. She found that yoga helped her build the body awareness she needed to create crisp aids and the strength necessary to maintain a functional position. Most importantly, yoga provided Robin with the ability to control her breath and, therefore, minimize anxiety when riding and training. Through the teachings of yoga and meditation, she is better able to understand non-verbal cues the horses provide and approach learning and teaching new skills as a dynamic process individual to the horse/rider team- an awareness that was developed on the mat.
