About Hanna
Gootée

Hanna Gootée is a certified Yoga Instructor and Reiki Practitioner who currently resides in the Vail Valley. Growing up on the east coast, playing competitive sports, and attending rigorous universities, Hanna knows the impact that a fast-paced and stressful life can have. She has been practicing yoga for about 10 years now and received her certification from Yandara Yoga Institute in Baja, Mexico. She is a certified Yoga Alliance Teacher.

 

Hanna’s belief is that yoga is the practice of unconditional, universal love. There are many different aspects of yoga that go far beyond the traditional asana practice (poses on a mat). As You Are Yoga was created with the mindset that yoga is meant to be a source of light, love, and healing for every individual; and in order to spread the gifts of this practice, we have to come to our mat exactly as you are.

Hanna offers sessions for every level – whether you have never stepped foot on the mat or have been practicing your whole life, she will work with you to meet all of your desires.

 

Everyday life in modern society tells us to put on a brave face, work harder, keep secrets, hold back tears, muscle through it, please those around you, etc. But in order to find any sort of peace and balance in our life, we have to endeavor each day through authentic actions and honest thoughts.

 

Hanna has endured her fair share of setbacks; and through these experiences she has found acceptance and clarity through yoga, meditation, and energy work. Through her medical challenges, she has had to work hard at finding peace in her body and connectedness to something greater than herself. It is through her journey of healing that she found all of the detriment in her body that her past had left behind…that which contributed to her disease (or her literal dis-ease). It is her greatest wish to share what she has learned and create more space for universal love and understanding in as many lives as possible. She will guide you in a way that encourages you to turn inwards for answers, to walk through your experiences to find clarity, and to find release for the trauma and emotion that is stored in your body.

 

There is an African Proverb, Ubuntu, that translates similarly to “I am because you are.” This philosophy reminds us that our humanity is all connected, and everything that we do has an effect on those around us. Through your work with Hanna, you are not only contributing to your own well-being, but simultaneously contributing to universal healing, as well.
