Dorie Silverman

I am an affiliated Anusara instructor who in 1993 sought out yoga to accompany traditional therapy. At that time I pursued the physical practice as well as yoga therapy, which taught me to use the body to transform and understand deeply rooted emotional issues. Since then I have explored many styles of yoga. In 2001, the universe guided me to the wisdom of Chicago’s only Anusara teacher at the time. Since then, I have studied consistently with John Friend and many of Anusara’s certified teachers. This training motivated me to leave the corporate world and teach yoga - to give back the gifts I have been given.

My intention in teaching is to empower and inspire others to connect with and express their greatest potential both on the yoga mat and in their daily lives. My inspiration comes from my varied interests including Rajanica Tantra philosophy on which Anusara yoga is based, growing orchids, psychology, my many feline and canine friends, yoga therapeutics, arts and crafts, and mostly my never ending thirst to find meaning in everyday life.
