Rita Maximilian

Rita’s journey with yoga started several years ago, and became her passion soon after that initial taste. her teaching style follows the principles of iyengar and ashtanga yoga, combining alignment and flow, with attention to breath. originally from hungary, she moved to the u.s. to complete her graduate studies. in her previous professional life, she worked in the fields of business development and education policy research. while professional change is not always easy to undertake, her passion for yoga and sharing yoga with others compelled her to start teaching. as t.k.v. desikachar says: “yoga serves the individual, and does so through inviting transformation rather than by giving information.” rita believes that if you open yourself up to the universe, have faith in yourself and work whole-heartedly toward your goals, transformation happens and happiness awaits. rita is a yoga alliance registered, YogaWorks certified teacher with great enthusiasm for sharing her love of yoga with my students, friends and family.
