Carrie Tyler, E-RYT 500, PYT Dover Yoga and Dover Pilates co-owner and founder began her movement career at a young age with dance, and has since passionately devoted her life to studying how the body moves both and physically and energetically. She began teaching at the age of 15 and discovered yoga and pilates in the late 90s which forever changed the direction of her career. As the creator of Rasamaya® Method she is known for her playful style of teaching, her strong knowledge of anatomy and alignment and her deep understanding of yogic philosophy and subtle energetics. It is her belief that yoga, pilates, dance, and the GYROTONIC® method can be

appropriate for every kind of body and that through the process of movement one can unleash their true energetic and creative potential.

She considers movement & complimentary healing therapies to be preventative medicine, and that regular practice and self care can reconcile many imbalances and dis"eases" of the body.
