Rob Farella's Biography-
Rob was a computer geek before he discovered yoga. The years in front of a computer and the stress of a corporate job had him seeking a new path. A chance try at yoga became a new career and way of life. Philips began a program in the office called Yoga@work. It even had a geeky title. He resisted for 2 years but after hurting himself for the umpteenth time at the gym he thought there must be something better I can do to stay healthy. He decided to try yoga and after the first class he was hooked. He quickly progressed in the study of yoga and developed a home practice. Encouraged and mentored by certified Anusara instructor Lara Demberg he decided to enter teacher training in the Anusara style. Rob has been practicing yoga since 2004 and has been teaching yoga at Philips for 2 years. He is now on the path to becoming an inspired Anusara instructor and has successfully completed Anusara Teacher Training Immersions 1, 2 and 3 with certified Anusara instructor Ross Rayburn. Rob has also completed workshop intensives with John Friend and Sally Kempton. Rob brings love of all aspects of yoga to his classes and encourages his students to develop a home practice. He says “Just do a little every day”.
Patti Oliviero, RYT -
Patti’s exposure to yoga and the healing arts has been a gradual one. She began by practicing Transcendental Meditation and Traditional Hatha and Iyengar Yoga as a form of relaxation and exercise while raising her family. In 2001 she was diagnosed with soft tissue and nerve damage in her hip area as well as two herniated spinal discs, causing sciatic pain. After over a year of physical therapy, Patti returned to practicing yoga in order to maintain physical strength and flexibility. During that time, she began her practice of Kripalu Yoga and was introduced to Reiki. She has incorporated yoga, meditation and energy work into her effort to live a healthy and pain-free life style.
Her background as Coordinator of Education and Mission at Catholic Charities of Long Island provided the opportunity to design, conduct and arrange training, retreats and special events for Social Ministry and Justice and Peace programs. During the 9/11 response, she was educated in Pastoral Strategies for Dealing with Stress and Trauma and participated in ongoing support for the paraprofessional community who served during that time.
Today, she resides in Danbury, CT with her husband and two cats where she continues to pursue her interests of hiking, herb gardening and vegetarian cooking. Patti is a Registered Yoga Teacher and a Reiki Master.
