Robin Ivy Payton

A Yoga Alliance E-RYT 500, Robin’s training began with Jacqui Bonwell and expanded through advanced studies with Pranakriya Yoga School, The Lotus Pond in Tampa, Marlysa Sullivan, Grace Jull, and others.

Robin leads 200-hour Yoga Teacher Trainings, Yoga Nidra & Restorative Yoga trainings, and other workshops. Her classes are trauma-sensitive, include offerings for all levels, and encourage self-awareness and body agency. Her classes are alignment-focused and taught at a moderate, slow pace in a warm studio environment, accompanied by instrumental music to create a calming and accessible experience for all levels. Along with yoga, Robin writes about astrology, nature, meditation, and other topics for Llewellyn Publications and Robin’s Zodiac Zone, her weekly blog. She and her husband, Jared, are both yoga teachers who enjoy living close to the ocean with their two beloved dogs.

“I find yoga to be endlessly creative in both teaching and practice. Since our bodies and minds shift frequently and thrive on both familiarity and newness, I teach or practice according to the day’s energy, looking to the Moon, Sun, planets, seasons, and cycles for intuitive guidance.”
