Yoga Services
In 2009 I was introduced to the practices of Gentle and Restorative Yoga – nourishing and awakening my mind, body, and spirit – and a new passion was born. As a former athlete who once bought into the cliche “no pain, no gain,” I was immediately surprised by how positively and quickly my body responded to the gentle, mindful movements of yoga. I began a regular yoga practice, starting once or twice a month in extra-gentle, senior classes, and progressing until here I am today, practicing regularly and teaching gentle yoga to students exactly where I was just three years ago.
In the spring of 2011 I received a 200hr teaching certification from Light and Love Yoga School and will soon graduate as a 500hr certified instructor. I teach and sub regularly throughout North San Diego County – see times and locations below. I am also available for private individual and group sessions. If you have a fear of movement and anticipate a painful response, I can help you gently immerse yourself into a safe and rewarding regular practice.
For more information or to inquire about private lessons, please contact me.

Gentle Restoration
Instructor: Dannette Rusnak
Donation Class – Suggested donation $5-$15
Gentle Restoration incorporates gentle and restorative asana into a slow, meditative practice designed to rejuvenate and heal the body, restore the nervous system, and help release deep stored tension. The practice will often include guided breath work and meditation. Yoga props such as blankets, blocks, bolsters, chairs, and straps are used for safe practice. Perfect for beginners or advanced students to welcome gentle openings, it is also an excellent choice for seniors, students suffering from chronic illness or injuries, and those newer to yoga.
Sunday 11AM-12:30PM
Restorative Yoga
Instructor: Dannette Rusnak
Cost – Single class, $15 – new student and discount packages available.
Long-held, relaxed floor poses stretch and stimulate the muscles and deep connective tissue of the body, encouraging release without effort. With the use of props, the body is fully supported, allowing for a deeper sense of relaxation and surrender. Expect to be fully restored and rejuvenated.
