Alison Murphy: Alison Murphy is a 200-hour Registered Yoga Teacher.  She completed her training at Sharing Yoga in May of 2014.  Her interest in yoga is because of its unique ability to help individuals look inward to calm the mind and at the same time strengthen the body physically through the postures.  Alison teaches classes around Concord to all ages and abilities. Alison also runs Concord Handmade, a mobile shop and holiday pop-up shop, and lives in Concord with her family.

Cory Curran: My passion to work with people as they move along their path has led me to two different professions: Social Worker by day, Yoga Teacher by evening.  Yoga can be a powerful tool in dealing with stress, affecting our mood, and healing the mind and body.  I find much overlap in my work.

I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) and have spent my 15+ year career working with adolescents and those around them.  I have also completed my 200-hour yoga teacher training, with over a 150 hours of additional training.  I have had the honor of teaching yoga, first with friends and coworkers, and then professionally, since 2009 with people of all ages. I enjoy helping folks along and bring a light, no-stress attitude to my practice.  People enjoy my sense of humor, willingness to laugh at myself, and flexibility.  

David Breen: David offers Yoga and Meditation at Sharing Yoga in Concord, at the New Hampshire State Prison for Men, and he directs the Sharing Yoga Teacher Training programs. David is trained through the Himalayan Institute and focuses on using meditation, relaxation, breathing techniques and Yoga to facilitate the healing process. He has been teaching Yoga in the Concord, New Hampshire area since 2002. He is known for his inspiring classes, his sense of humor, and his dedication to the ancient teachings of Yoga. As a graduate of the Bija Ananda Teacher Training Program, he received his RYT designation from the Yoga Alliance in 2004. In 2005 he completed the Ashtanga Yoga Primary Series Teacher Training with David Swenson and in 2006 he earned his E-RYT designation, one of only 3 people in New Hampshire to hold that designation at the time. He started the Sharing Yoga Teacher Training program in 2006, and after returning from India in 2007 he opened Sharing Yoga Community Yoga School in Concord. In 2010 he received the designation of E-RYT 500, the highest level of training recognized by Yoga Alliance.
