Elizabeth Gait joins our office as a classical Hatha Yoga instructor after studying extensively in Mumbai, India for two years at the renowned Yoga Institute in Santacruz, the world’s oldest organized Yoga Center founded in 1918, where she received her teaching certification.

Elizabeth grew up locally here in Farmington and after living away for 18 years in various locales, finds herself coming full circle and back home once again.

During her two-year stay in India, Elizabeth discovered the science of Yoga in the land of its origin and there she quickly realized her calling as a sincere practitioner of Yoga which led naturally to the role of instructor, all this after spending 17 years as a business professional in the insurance and more recently reinsurance industry. Since this transformative experience, she has never looked back and indeed, continues to looks forward enthusiastically to her new-found career in Yoga.

Having worked as a business professional in the insurance industry for many years, Elizabeth well understands the many stress factors which plague our modern culture which is unquestionably the primary causes of distress and disease today. More importantly, she appreciates from personal experience, the manifold health benefits which Yoga has to offer and is optimistic that the science of Yoga can help to arrest and even reverse the damage caused by our modern “hurry and worry” lifestyle. Elizabeth describes her duty as a Yoga instructor to keep her students fully engaged and interested in the process of learning about the vast science of Yoga
