Ciara Cunningham
Love Warriors Yoga
About
My name is Ciara Marie Cunningham and I have been practicing yoga since 2005 when I took my first classes at the CNY Yoga Center (now Dharma Yoga Syracuse) with Saraswati Om. At the time I was an antsy teenager struggling with asthma and anxiety, and yoga provided an undeniable, almost-instant relief. Fast forward to Glasgow, Scotland in 2014: as my husband was undergoing treatment for a brain tumor, I found a renewed passion for yoga and general wellness through movement and a resolution to share that passion with others. Since I was introduced to Ashtanga yoga in Scotland and began practicing with teachers Kyle Gray, Gemma Maryan, and Colette Forrest-Bosque, I recommitted to daily practice that now incorporates strong influences from both Ashtanga and yin yoga. Upon moving back to Syracuse in 2016, I completed my RYT-200 Teacher Training through the Boston Yoga School’s adjunct program at O Yoga Syracuse and shifted my life whole-heartedly towards making movement more accessible to everyone in my community. I've studied with teachers like Ame Wren, Kevin Courtney, Josh Summers and Jason Crandell -- I'm always looking to further my education and knowledge of the human body and how to provide a challenging and balanced class to my students.
In 2016 I finished my Usui-Method Reiki Level 1 training and completed my Level 2 training in 2017. I currently teach private and small group yoga lessons in and around Syracuse, and am available for special bookings and events. I teach regular classes in studios around Syracuse, along with teaching yoga classes open to veterans, their families and staff at the VA Hospital in Syracuse through Connected Warriors. I teach regular classes at at O Yoga (Syracuse) and Vyana Yoga, as well as being founding instructor at Barre3 Syracuse. You can find my full calendar below!
