Tricia McAvoy
Founder of Blissworks Yoga & Healing Arts and Director of Yoga. Tricia McAvoy is a certified Anusara-Inspired(TM) Yoga Instructor with her initial training from Kripalu. She is a Registered Yoga Teacher through the National Yoga Alliance, and member of the Kripalu Yoga Teacher's Association as well as a Karuna/Usui Reiki Master Teacher.
Tricia received her Anusara-Inspired(TM) Yoga certification upon completing a Teacher Training with Todd Norian. She also leads yoga in England through the Cheshire Dance Association.
Tricia is certified through the Lotus Palm school of Montreal, Canada, and offers Thai Yoga Therapy at Blissworks. She also teaches yoga classes locally at the Pfizer facilities in New London and Groton, CT.
Tricia started her practice of yoga in 1996 and began teaching in 2000. She believes yoga, along with other lifestyle changes, has allowed her to heal from lupus and its debilitating symptoms. Blissworks was birthed in 2004 and after a few trial locations, has finally found it's hOMe.
Tricia happily resides in downtown New London (where she is thrilled to see the renaissance of the city). While not practicing her yoga, Tricia enjoys nordic walking, rollerblading, playing on her Mac, and chanting whenever and where ever she gets the opportunity!
