About Rosemary (Rudrani) Nogue CSYT, E-RYT700, YAA certified, Founder of Bliss Yoga Calgary
I started practicing yoga and meditation during the 1970s and spent the next several years in career development, being a parent, teaching parenting and exploring energy and spirituality. In 1997 I was drawn back to yoga and entered the Teacher Training program through the Yoga Centre of Calgary, which led to my certification as a yoga instructor. In 1999 I began training with Gurudevi Nirmalananda (Rama Berch), the creator of Svaroopa® (Bliss) yoga and have continued with advanced training classes through Master Yoga Foundation and Svaroopa® Vidya Ashram. In 2009, 2010, 2015, 2017 and 2019 I deepened my yoga and spiritual experience by immersing myself in retreats in India with Gurudevi Nirmalananda. I currently teach Svaroopa® yoga group classes for new, continuing and more advanced students and also offer private yoga, Embodyment® and Vichara sessions. I am also a Svaroopa® Vidya meditation teacher and a Svaroopa® Vidya Group Meditation Leader and and lead “Learn to Meditate” class series and offer monthly Yoga Philosophy Discussion Groups and Group Meditations (Satsang). At the end of 2015, I completed 5 years serving on the board of the Svaroopa® Vidya Ashram. In 2011 and 2012 I served as the ashram e-letter coordinator and in 2013 I was a founding co-editor of “Tadaa!” Svaroopa® Vidya’s online magazine. I am proud to be a part of the Calgary Svaroopa® yoga community and frequently co-host leading Svaroopa® teachers in Calgary. In 2019, the Yoga Association of Alberta granted me permanent certification as a yoga teacher and in 2021 for 1,000 hours lifetime certification. In 2022 I was honored to be given the title of Yogaratna (yoga gem) by Gurudevi Nirmalananda. She created this yogic title to honor those who embody the qualities of yoga in three ways:
