Sherry Thompson, M.S.

Sherry has been practicing yoga since 1990 and received her first teacher’s certification under the tutelage of Rajana Pallana, one of the first teachers of yoga in the Dallas area. She furthered her teacher training through the Yoga Institute of Houston.As she continued her training it seemed natural to move to a more therapeutic style and she began teaching at the Colleyville Family Medicine clinic and went on to receive her Yoga Therapy certification from Integrative Yoga Therapy. She has followed that training by moving her practice to Destination Health^TM in Southlake Texas and continues her training with some of the best teachers in the country including, but not limited to, Paula Weithman, a certified Iyengar teacher who she’s studied with for more than ten years.  Other teachers  have included, in the Iyengar style, Kofi Bushia, Joan White, Ramanand Patel, Dean Lerner, Mary Obendorfer, Rita Manos, Stephanie Quark (specifically teacher training, Gabrielle Grubillano and Roger Cole (primarily for the anatomy of the poses).  She has also worked with Gary Kraft sow, Angela Farmer, Shiva Rea, Tisa Little and Erich Schiffman. However, her practice has always been her primary teacher and continues to be so.

Her style is sensitive and intuitive as she feels into every client’s pain and uses her knowledge and training to understand and apply the practices of yoga to alleviate pain, both mental and physical. Her classes are small for those who need attention but may not need one-on-one attention.
