Joni began to study Yoga after a knee injury prevented her from walking. She was astonished at how much mobility, flexibility, and movement were restored to her body after a series of Hatha Yoga classes.

It was in Lenox Massachusetts, the home of Kripalu Center for Yoga and Health, that Joni obtained her Kripalu Yoga teacher’s certification.

It is in Huntington, New York, that she currently offers her Kripalu classes.

She loves teaching traditional Hatha yoga.

She has also developed a yoga series that incorporates seated chair yoga. This form of Yoga is for those who prefer being seated.

She volunteers at the Helen Keller Center; the Jewish Guild for the Blind; and at Beth Israel Hospital.

Joni is married, and is blessed with two beautiful children. She enjoys the quiet of a park walk as well as the excitement of New York City life.

She knows that transformation is always possible. All we have to do is to stop and to listen.
