About Ana

Yoga helped me to heal emotionally, as a young woman, and really changed the direction of my life for the better. After practicing for ten years, I began teaching yoga classes. Now that I've been teaching for decades, at the age of (almost) 76, I see that yoga has kept me strong physically, while growing my spiritual, emotional and mental health. It sounds amazing to anyone who has not had the experience, but this practice has the power to heal us on many levels! I truly am passionate about the path of Yoga, and I work to make it available to everyone, regardless of physical ability, through my teaching.

My first experiences with Yoga were at home, as both my parents practiced Yoga starting in the 1960's. In the early 1960's I went to India and met the great teacher Sri T. Krishnamacharya, and his son T.K.V. Desikachar.

I began teaching for free in the 1970's to friends who asked me. During the 1980's & '90's I taught in Wellness centers and YWCA in Clarksburg and Parkersburg, WV. I trained at Maui Yoga Therapy in 1996 through 1999. I also trained at The Vedic Chant Center, Santa Fe from 1998 to 2007, and still train almost every year. I became certified to teach by Krishnamacharya Healing and Yoga Foundation in 2006. In 2003, I began teaching Yoga for Kansas State University, on campus, which I continue to do. College students benefit greatly from this practice!

For those who feel they are too weak, too old, too stiff - I teach private lessons to tailor a personal practice that will address you specific needs. I suggest, also, that beginners may want to start with a private lesson to evaluate whether they are ready to attend a group class. Those with experience, who are already practicing or looking to inspire their personal practice can also benefit from coming to me privately for one, or a series of lessons. And group classes are also available.

You can learn more about me on my website at (concealed information) and also on Face Book at Heart Space Yoga.

For me, teaching Yoga is a blessing. Helping students to discover themselves and appreciate themselves as they are, and to know they have the ability to transcend limitations is a joy! I have much gratitude for all my teachers, who have lifted me up to appreciate my own capabilities as a teacher, mentor and therapist - so that I can be of service to my community and all who visit here.

Ana Franklin trained and received acceptance as a Yoga Teacher and Therapist with Gary Kraftsow, at Maui Yoga Therapy in 1998.

Trained with T.K.V. Desikachar and was certified in Madras, India (Chennai) at Krishnamacharya Healing and Yoga Foundation.

Certified Yoga Teacher by Krishanamacharya Healing and Yoga Foundation in 2005.

Trained in Vedic Chant at The Vedic Chant Center, Santa Fe, NM with Sonia Nelson and recieved permission to teach Vedic Chant.

The classes are small which enables Ana gives individual attention to students. She provides a calm and spiritual atmosphere to unwind from the day as apart of our yoga practice.

Ana provides individual coaching even in the group classes. She truly pays attention to each student. I was often surprised by how she notices tension or weakness that you don't notice on your own - and then provides quick advice for how to address it. She has a level of intuition that only comes with years of experience.

There is a reason that Ana Franklin, proprietor and yoga instructor/guide of Heart Space Yoga, has had a presence in the Manhattan community for so long, she has grounded knowledge and practice in the various limbs of yoga. Heart Space Yoga allows those new, or learned, to continue exploring and nurturing themselves more holistically by cultivating their yoga practice.

Ana is an adaptive instructor and personalizes instruction to meet your specific yoga needs. She goes beyond just the poses and does an excellent job of integrating breath, movement and sound to develop a holistic practice. She's knowledgeable and deeply cares about you as a student. I highly recommend her classes to all--those just beginning to those who have lots of experience.

Very individualized! Loved the teaching and how she changes the poses to fit what is best for each person. I felt so amazing after each class! Wish she could teach locally where I live, I would go everyday!
