Cara Campbell
Cara took her first yoga class as a freshman in college, hoping for an easy A. She got the A, and, over 15 years later, she’s still learning “how to do yoga”. Having explored many different yogic traditions, from Ashtanga to Bikram to Hatha to Vinyasa to Yin, Cara approaches yoga as an embodied form of mindful awareness, with an emphasis on curiosity, play, and balanced, functional strength and flexibility. She enjoys infusing her classes with creative transitions, intentional movement, and slow, steady breath to balance and calm the body, mind and nervous system.
Cara received her 200-hour Certification from the Keene Yoga Center and spent 9 months living and working at The Sanctuary at Two Rivers retreat in Costa Rica, studying yoga and Ayurveda. When she’s not teaching or practicing yoga, she enjoys exploring the great outdoors, cooking and reading.

She completed her 200 hour teaching training at The Center School of Yoga in Harrisonburg, VA with Suzanne McCahill Perrine in 2018.

Mary Potter
Mary was born and raised in Jaffrey, NH and has spent her life in the woods and lakes of the Monadnock Region; as well as her summers and falls on a small island on the coast of Maine. Mary has been practicing yoga for nearly 10 years now. Her practice became consistent in 2019 and in 2023 she deepened her practice through yoga teacher training.

Emma Tshibambi
Emma is a local baker who aims, first and foremost, to make the world around her more delicious. She was raised between Keene, New Hampshire and New York City where she grew up among Aikido dojos, Tai Chi studios, and Brazilian Jiu Jitsu schools. Early on, this instilled the importance of physical practice, personal growth, mindfulness, and self discipline which are so fundamental to meditative martial arts and yoga practices. It would be these same principals and philosophies that eventually lead her to study yoga through Vira Bhava Yoga.
Emma went to her first yoga class in her early teens and attended begrudgingly, to say the least - she strode in to battle armed only with a free guest pass, a water bottle, and an attitude problem. A few years later, Emma encountered yoga through a high school program, led by Meenakshi Moses. It came as quite a surprise that the class was invigorating, challenging, and shared much DNA with the martial arts she’d come to love.
James Wood
James has been teaching yoga for 5 years now with his 200-hour yoga certification. He began practicing yoga 20 years ago after moving back to the Boston area from southern Vermont. It wasn’t until 2005 when he met Robert Moses that he began to understand the depths of yoga and how to integrate it into his everyday life. Through Robert's teaching and Ashtanga yoga, James began to understand the discipline of yoga and the interconnectedness of mind, body, and spirit.
What started as a physical practice quickly became a breathing practice and then a spiritual practice. James takes inspiration from his daughter Kat as a constant source of knowledge and discovery in her passion of movement and understanding of the human body.
Kat Wood
Kat was introduced to yoga in 2007 when her dad took her to an Ashtanga class. She did not take to it immediately but practiced on and off for the next few years before establishing a regular practice. Like many people, she first showed up for the asana then realized the impacts of breathing practices, presence, and awareness.
Kat completed her 200-hour teacher training in 2015 and hit the ground running. Since then, Kat’s teaching style has evolved into an amalgamation of training, skills, and techniques from both the anatomy and physiology of the massage world and traditional yoga practices.
Kat strives to constantly keep her learning fresh and informed so she can give her students an understanding of the subtle foundations of postures and movements while providing a framework for personal exploration.
