Dragonfly Studio had the good fortune of having Ashton Szabo as a guest instructor over the summer and fall of 2011. Ashton has been studying and practicing yoga for the past two decades, having first been introduced to yoga when he was twelve years old by his Japanese Ju Jitsu Sensei, Steve Copping.  He is a 200hr E-RYT through Yoga Alliance, and an LMT (having studied massages for the same two decades). Ashton was exposed to eastern philosophy from a young age, having begun learning martial arts at the ripe young age of five. Ashton brings a universality to his teachings. His concern is for the opening expansion and well being of his students. Not limited by the constraints of any one particular teaching or system, Ashton strives to help each student find what is useful for them in realizing the divine. His love and dedication to teaching and to his students shines through in all of his classes. Currently he has returned to Thailand where he has lived for the past six years, hosting teacher training classes and immersing himself in his practices. We hope to have Ashton back as a guest teacher sometime in the near future!       http://www.daogandantra.com/
