Gay was first drawn to yoga over 30 years ago. She began studying in 1980 with her life-long friend and teacher Margaret Hahn, under whose mentorship she did her teacher training. She began teaching in the mid 1980's. Over the years she has sought to expand her understanding of yoga through classes with various teachers, including, Ramanand Patel, Kamal Paul, Judith Lasater, Laurie Blakeney, Michelle Desmarais, Tias Little, John Friend, and Christy Burnett. She is currently studying with Mark Watson. Gay has found the practice of yoga to be essential to the process of opening fully to life, and is grateful for the challenges and learning that have come from her relationships with her many students and teachers. She has found marriage and mothering to be profound spiritual practices, and her son Michael and her husband Steve provide the mirrors that continually reflect to her how she needs to grow. She is looking forward to exploring this ancient spiritual tradition with her students.
