Barbara Heiz
Barbara is a prenatal and postnatal yoga teacher and Holistic Nutritionist who takes a deeply nurturing and inclusive approach to her teaching. After decades in the corporate world and a journey through burnout, Barbara found healing through yoga—and it sparked her desire to help others do the same. Her classes are grounded in compassion and designed for all women: whether you're trying to conceive, navigating pregnancy, recovering from loss, or simply seeking a calming space to connect with your body and breath. She creates a space where women can feel supported, empowered, and held during life’s most transformative seasons.

Chyna Sampson
A passionate guide with a depth of personal experience and dedication to understanding the mind-body connection. She seamlessly weaves mindfulness into her classes in her commitment to helping others find balance, strength and peace.

Josh Liebling
Josh brings a deeply grounded and calming presence to Rhoswyn as our resident Qi Gong teacher. A lifelong learner, he’s spent the last 15 years exploring meditation modalities ranging from transcendental and mantra meditation to breathwork and mindfulness. But it was Qi Gong that truly transformed his life—and he now shares this practice with others through both group classes and 1-on-1 sessions. Josh is certified under renowned masters Lee Holden, Robert Peng, and Ken Cohen, and also offers personalized Daoist coaching. His teaching helps students return to a state of peaceful awareness that feels like home.

Megan Dunne
Originally from Dublin, Ireland, Megan radiates gentle strength and compassionate energy in every class she teaches. Her journey with yoga began as part of her healing from an eating disorder and has since evolved into a lifelong practice—and profession—that continues to bring her peace and purpose. Now a certified prenatal and postnatal yoga teacher and doula-in-training, Megan is passionate about supporting people through pregnancy, early parenthood, and beyond. Her classes are deeply mindful, soothing, and affirming spaces for people at every stage of life.

Michelle Marone
With a heart full of compassion and a passion for helping children thrive, Michelle brings joy, movement, and mindfulness to every class. Michelle makes yoga fun and accessible for all ages and abilities.

Mary Torrado
Mary brings a bright, joyful energy to the mat and teaches with a focus on alignment, simplicity, and mindfulness. Originally from NYC, she left behind her corporate job to follow her heart, teaching in Uluwatu, Bali, before landing here. Mary’s personal yoga journey has enhanced her physical health and deepened her emotional resilience—and she loves sharing that experience with others. Her classes are grounding, energizing, and always an invitation to reconnect with your breath and body.

Rachel Hedley
Rachel teaches from the heart, infusing each class with warmth, playfulness, and a deep reverence for the practice. Her approach blends Hatha yoga with strong foundations in breath, strength, and presence. With a background in philosophy, movement, and corporate life, Rachel’s teaching is deeply rooted in self-discovery and personal growth. Her classes are thoughtfully sequenced, musically rich, and filled with permission to show up exactly as you are.

Sarah Lee Michaels
With over 20 years teaching Sarah weaves upbeat energy with creativity into every class. Sarah guides you to strengthen your body intelligently and peacefully through movement and purpose.

Suzanne Wadyka
Suzanne’s yoga journey began as a way to manage chronic back pain—and quickly became a pathway to joy, movement, and personal transformation. What started with Iyengar evolved into a deep love for flow classes, where she found freedom, strength, and expression. Suzanne now guides others with that same sense of purpose, creating empowering classes filled with intention, joy, and mindfulness. Her goal is simple: help others feel more alive in their bodies and more connected to themselves.

Family
Together Jerry and Anna Louise are active members of the Wilton community. When they are not at the studio they can be found coaching the Wilton Youth Cheer squad, volunteering at Girl Scout events (for Troop 50373) and enjoying the beautiful trails around town.
When their daughter Cosima Rose arrived in 2015 they made the conscious choice, as so many parents do, to be as present as possible in her formative years. As Cosi grows and becomes increasingly independent, Anna Louise and Jerry shifted from active participants to taxi drivers and audience. It was this gap that, in part, inspired them to open Rhoswyn Wellness as a space where parents and children can come together and connect.
“We cannot fix every fall, remove every obstacle or protect against the stress of living in today’s world. But we can walk the path alongside our families, showing that we will always be there with them and for them.”
