Denise Barclay

Denise's journey into the world of mindfulness and meditation began in 1995 when she started practicing Vipassana Meditation. This path led her to become a yoga teacher in 1998, a journey she's remained dedicated to over the years.
In May 2012, Denise enrolled in the intensive Mindfulness Yoga and Meditation Teacher Training program. This transformative experience was led by notable figures, Phillip Moffitt and Anne Cushman, at Spirit Rock Meditation Center. Here, she diligently honed her skills, gaining the wisdom that defines her unique teaching style.
Denise's commitment to sharing the principles of mindfulness, movement, and meditation led her to become a Dharma Teacher for the Dharma Zephyr Insight Meditation Community. She has extensive experience teaching mindfulness classes, daylongs, and weekend retreats, all of which have been enriched by her relationship with her teacher, Heather Sundberg, and Heather's Committed Students Program.
Beyond her role as a teacher, Denise is a loving wife, mother, and friend. Her understanding of the philosophies of Yoga and Buddha Dharma informs her daily interactions. With over 40 years of self-exploration, healing, and mindfulness, her experiences as a Reiki Practitioner and Mindfulness Coach offer a unique perspective.
Denise's life journey is an inspiring one, making her a valuable guide for those seeking a more mindful and meaningful path.
