Cindy Becnel is a RYT®200 teacher currently located near a bayou in Thibodaux, Louisiana.  She teaches slower beginning yoga classes centered on mindfulness and the breath while transitioning through meditation, asana (poses), and relaxation.  

Cindy has been practicing yoga since high school (it was a gym class in 1974!) and teaching since 2014.  She became certified to teach Yoga Nidra in 2014, and completed her 200 hour certification with Natalie Croix of Shanti Yoga, in 2018.  She is passionate about restorative yoga, and was lucky enough to receive Level 1 (certified) and Level 2 training from Judith Hanson Lasater, and continues to study with Judith and her daughter, Lizzie Lasater.

When not on the mat, Cindy enjoys life with family and friends in Louisiana and Colorado or wherever they may be, exploring nature, painting murals, and listening to great music.
