Brooke Moyse is a yoga teacher, visual artist, and art educator based in Brooklyn, NY. Brooke taught art to students with special needs in Brooklyn, NY where she integrated her yoga, meditation, and fine art training to give students a creative outlet and language for communicating their experiences. She brings this same commitment to individualized learning and agency to teaching yoga and strives to empower individuals to develop the tools to care for themselves with awareness and compassion.
Brooke received a 200 HR yoga certification from YogaWorks in 2016, and shortly after developed debilitating back pain which led to the realization that she had scoliosis. After her diagnosis she made her way to Iyengar Yoga to discover a more integrative and therapeutic approach to managing her condition. She has been assisting Deborah Wolk’s classes at Samamkaya Yoga since 2017 and has completed Samamkaya’s Advanced Studies Program focusing on teaching integrative and embodied yoga for back care techniques. Brooke has also studied extensively with Elise Browning-Miller, having completed her Yoga for Scoliosis Teacher Training and Practicum to become certified to teach Yoga for Scoliosis. More recently, Brooke has been fortunate to study regularly with Abhijata Iyengar, Raya U.D., and Hugh Millard, all of whom bring clarity and insight to yoga therapeutics and the mind/body connection. Brooke also has an ongoing interest in meditation and completed a 100 HR yoga and mindfulness training through the Nalanda Institute under Mary Reilly Nichols, with whom she continues to study.
