Connie Hausman

Connie Hausman, director and founder of CAN DO YOGA™ in Redwood City, California, has studied and taught Iyengar Yoga for over fourteen years. She began her teacher-training in the two-year Advanced Studies Program at the Iyengar Yoga Institute of San Francisco. Thereafter, Connie apprenticed for five years under internationally acclaimed Iyengar instructor Yelena Fedotova. In the spring of 2001, she had the honor of working with Geeta Iyengar, BKS Iyengar's daughter, and in 2003, Connie traveled to Pune, India to study with the Iyengar family. For the last eight years she has apprenticed and studied with world-renowned senior Iyengar instructor Manouso Manos for eight years.

Connie teaches orthodox Iyengar Yoga in a systematic, professional manner. Her classes build a strong foundation in the poses. Like constructing building blocks, the poses become more refined as methodically new details are added. Her enthusiasm and love of Iyengar Yoga is obvious in all her classes. Connie's ultimate objective is to impart how Yoga creates choice--a choice for greater physical, mental, and spiritual health and well-being.

Connie is a certified Iyengar teacher and holds a BA in psychology and English from the University of Texas. She has practiced massage therapy for over fifteen years, and is the mother of three beautiful children.
