• Info

  We are rooted in health and the therapeutic aspects of yoga. We are committed to helping you find your personal well of inner strength. "I love Teresa! There is something about the way she walks you through a pose that allows you to squeeze every bit of goodness from it. Her verbal queues direct so well that even a beginner like me can properly move through asanas to get the maximum benefit from them. She is knowledgeable and patient and able to help her students adapt no matter their experience, strength or flexibility. Take a class with her. You won't be sorry!" — Carol G.

About

• About Teresa Owen

  • Teresa Owen

    Teresa Owen, E-RYT200, YCEP, C-IAYT, founded Inner Smile Yoga in 2005, to fill a void for those students intimidated or fearful of the growing large studio and fast-paced yoga scene. She is certified in yoga, yoga therapy and as a continuing education provider. She offers both public and private classes, workshops, and retreats in Marin County and Atlanta, Georgia, her current home. One-on-one therapeutic specialties include the nervous system, pelvic floor, asthma/respiratory conditions, hormonal/energy imbalances and a wide variety of orthopedic applications.

  • She has been studying yoga since 1997.

    Her primary influences include Tias Little, Aadil Palkhivala, and Mark Horner. She is trained in the Iyengar style with an eclectic mix of intensive work with Forrest Yoga, Vini, and Shadow Yoga. She received her Yoga Therapy certification in 2004.

  • Teresa's approach reflects her experience as a longtime competitive athlete, healthcare advocate, event and group facilitator, wife and mother of two young adults.

    She weaves together her life experience, love of yoga and spiritual exploration, with an eye toward keeping her classes both accessible and challenging.

  • Skilled in tracking the movement and grounding of energy

    She is a Reiki Master and continues to expand her training in other forms of subtle-body healing. She is currently a dedicated student of Shadow Yoga.

• Inner Smile Philosophy

  "You cannot do yoga. Yoga is your natural state. What you can do are yoga exercises, which may reveal to you where you are resisting your natural state." ~ Sharon Gannon.

  • Deeply rooted in the classical Hatha Yoga tradition, we seek to support every student in their quest to find their personal approach to Yoga.

    Public classes are limited to 8 students for a more intimate and effective learning experience. We strongly believe Yoga is accessible to everyone, regardless of physical limitation. In our small studio environment, there is a strong sense of community and shared learning. Beginners learn from more advanced students and more advanced students learn from beginners.

  • Every class is designed to be safe, challenging and engaging, regardless of your yoga experience.

    We give our students a strong foundation in proper alignment and reinforce the concept of "Beginner's Mind." Both are essential tools for understanding the energetic principles behind yoga and the "rajas" or "juice" available in a space without force or aggression.

• About Reiki

  Reiki treatments are available for $85/hour or $130/90 minutes. Sliding scale is available. Upcoming workshops schedule.

  • Teresa is a Reiki Master trained in the Usui Shiki Ryoho tradition.

  • Reiki is a Japanese technique for stress reduction and relaxation that also promotes healing

    It is administered by "laying on hands" and is based on the idea that an unseen "life force energy" flows through us and is what causes us to be alive. If one's "life force energy" is low, then we are more likely to get sick or feel stress, and if it is high, we are more capable of being happy and healthy.

  • A treatment feels like a wonderful glowing radiance that flows through and around you.

    Reiki treats the whole person including body, emotions, mind and spirit creating many beneficial effects that include relaxation and feelings of peace, security and wellbeing.

  • Reiki is a simple, natural and safe method of spiritual healing and self-improvement that everyone can use.

    It also works in conjunction with all other medical or therapeutic techniques to relieve side effects and promote recovery.
