Rose began her love affair with yoga when she saw the change it created in her father whom was a strict and serious man. She saw how yoga softened him, made him more conscious, wiser, and more compassionate. Thinking to herself, if something is so powerful that it can change a 50 year old man's hard earned ways, then it could do wonders for her. When she made the decision to live a life of yoga in 2006, she immediately noticed the changes within herself as well. Whether you come from injury, stress, or any of the aches associated with modern day living, she is there to assist you on a journey within to explore the depths of what we are truly made of. She uses specific tools like mantra, meditation, pranayama and acute sensory awareness to help create a holistic approach to her classes. She is trained by world renown yogis but brings her own unique blend of Hatha, Ashtanga, Iyengar, Tantra, and Ayurveda. She is currently studying under the guidance of Jeanne Heileman and Rod Stryker. She hopes to create an environment for beginning and intermediate students to experience the wholeness and lightness of being that comes as a result of living a life with consciousness, awareness, connection and freedom.

Dearbhla Kelly discovered yoga in 1994 while studying philosophy in Amsterdam. She returned to her hometown, Dublin, Ireland, to complete her M.A. and deepen her practice. In 2001 she relocated to Chicago to pursue a Ph.D and teach yoga. She is currently based in Los Angeles and Berlin. Dearbhla leads workshops and participates in yoga and music festivals throughout the U.S. and internationally. Over the last five years, she has been on the schedule at several studios in Los Angeles; this class at InYoga Center marks the first time she has taught in the Valley. A skillful and intuitive teacher, Dearbhla's classes are invigorating yet relaxing, challenging yet nurturing, engaging not just body but also mind and spirit. She believes that yoga is a technology designed to connect you to your deepest self, to your radiant body of bliss and love. Her lilting Irish accent and Dublin wit make her classes uniquely enjoyable. Dearbhla's teaching style bears the imprint of her studies of Forrest Yoga, Anusara, Yin Yoga, Vinyasa flow, Ashtanga, Yoga Nidra and Bhakti Yoga. She has completed foundation and advanced trainings with Ana Forrest, and taught at Forrest Yoga Institute in Santa Monica until it closed, as well as trainings with Saul David Raye and iRest/Yoga Nidra with Richard Miller. She now mostly practices ashtanga, and has been blessed to study with Danny Paradise, Annie Pace and Manju Jois. She is particularly interested in the biochemical basis of bliss and the ability of scientific language to explain seemingly mystical and transcendent experiences. She believes that accounting for such experiences in the language of science heightens rather than diminishes their meaningfulness. Dearbhla is deeply motivated by the project of articulating a new paradigm which can accommodate the fundamental insights of both the scientific and spiritual worldviews. Her article 'Karma is Chemistry' has recently been published in LA Yoga Magazine, and Yoga Journal, Germany.
