Kripalu is the largest center for yoga and holistic health in the U.S., serving people of all backgrounds for more than 20 years. They offer a large number of experiential yoga, self-discovery, holistic health and spiritual programs.Retreats and workshops in other locations and through the Federation of Ontario Yoga Teachers have also been a part of Riejanne’s continuing development. She is also musical. Riejanne began learning to play the piano many years ago and in the past seven years has been playing the harp. You must ask her how she first became interested in playing the harp.

I invite you to make contact with Riejanne and give her the opportunity to share her many talents with you. She has interesting stories to tell of her many learning experiences over the years. She is a warm and enjoyable person.
