Pam Breithaupt has been a student of yoga for 18 years, a teacher of yoga for ten years, a student and teacher of viniyoga for seven years, a graduate of American Viniyoga Institute, and an informal student of Ayurveda for nine years.
After experimenting with several types of yoga, Breithaupt chose viniyoga for her own practice as well as for teaching others because of its adaptive nature. Viniyoga adapts yoga to the individual needs of the student, rather than forcing the student to conform to the constraints of a particular practice. Her teaching experience includes classroom instruction and private consultations for clients who want a personalized practice as well as clients with special needs, including those with MS, fibromyalgia, chronic pain, and other immune disorders. She also administers private consultations with athletes to improve their performance by designing movement and breath routines based on their individual specialties.
Before becoming interested in yoga, Breithaupt worked for over ten years in newspaper advertising and related fields. She left the corporate world to raise her two sons. She holds a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Photography. Breithaupt lives and teaches yoga in the Cedar Park, Lago Vista, and Round Rock areas.
