Instructor: Antonia Noonan

Antonia Noonan  (Radhika Om), a 500 hour registered yoga teacher, is a firm believer in following one's heart and embracing the fun and joy in life, both on and off the mat. She has always loved teaching -- whatever it was, from aerobics, to swimming lessons, to vocal coaching. Her enthusiasm for her own yoga practice, and her desire to want to share that with others, lead her to the teacher training program with Betsy Kase at Yoga Haven, where she received her 200 hour certification. In addition to teaching, Antonia loves to learn, so she continues to study, earning certifications from Shiva Rea and Karma Kids yoga. She also completed her 500 hour Advanced Certification with Shri Dharma Mittra, of whom she is a devoted student. Antonia's inspiration for her classes is drawn from several different teachers and styles of yoga, and from watching her five-year-old son -- a natural born yogi -- both on and off his yoga mat.
