Gia Lupinacci-Maxson

I began practicing Yoga as a college Sophomore in 1987. After decades of practice and years of Yoga training, combined with a Masters in Education, I have developed my own brand of Yoga. Spacious breath work, creative sequencing and easy-to-learn meditation techniques are my specialty as I instruct a wide-spectrum of ages and levels in a variety of settings.

I underwent a Catholic "reversion" in my thirties as my husband and I began raising our children. This reversion has lead to a passion for the Daily Liturgy as well as reciting the Mysteries of the Rosary. Over the years I have been involved in Eucharistic Adoration, Sacred Music Ministry, Bible Study and Contemplative Prayer.

My current passion is combining my knowledge of Yoga with Catholicism and I have been working on a book that will attempt to reconcile both ancient traditions. Not an easy task.

I reside in Hickory, NC with my husband, teen children and could possibly be considered a crazy cat-lady.
