Sandra Safadirazieli
Sandra Safadirazieli originally came to yoga in 1997 to find a
way to ease pain associated with scoliosis. She quickly
discovered that asana practice not only helped her feel better
in her body, but was great training for her mind and
inspirational for her spirit.
Sandra experienced many years of frustration trying to find a
way to ease the pain of her scoliosis. She began teaching in
the hope that others would not have such a difficult
experience. She graduated from the Piedmont Yoga Studio’s
Advanced Studies 1 ½ year program in 2001 and studied in
Pune with the Iyengars in 2007. She is registered with Yoga
Alliance as a RYT 500 and is a member of the California Yoga
Teachers. She is certified by Elise Miller as a Yoga for
Scoliosis Trainer. She also holds a teacher certification in Yoga
and Jewish Spirituality from the Institute of Yoga and Jewish
Spirituality.

Sandra enjoys yoga as a lifelong practice of exploration and is grateful to her many teachers including Elise Miller,
Donald Moyer, Mary Paffard, Ramanand Patel, Richard Rosen and Jin Sung.
She believes that applying the insights gained in yoga practice to everyday habits of movement can lead to greater
freedom and comfort, and ultimately a more fulfilling life. In addition, she finds yoga is a particularly powerful
practice because it is a method by which individuals can have an active role in taking care of themselves. As an
avid soccer player she firmly believes that yoga has and will help her to keep on kicking for many years. As an
anthropologist she is keenly aware of how cultural messages affect our body image, and ultimately our experience
living in and with our bodies
