About Diana

Diana Vandel's life has been is a blend of music, nature, yoga and meditation.   These things have inspired her from the "get go".   With her Texas roots beginning in San Antonio, she has early memories as a 6 year-old of dangling her feet from a piano bench.   Finally her legs grew long enough to touch the floor and she moved on to the pipe organ culminating with a degree in Music Education from the University of Texas at Austin.

Climbing trees, riding bikes, taking delight in natural areas extended the love of music to the exhilarating outdoors. This affinity of tuning into her surroundings grew into exploring many forms of meditation.

Diana has also expressed herself through a career in Health Care administration, as a music teacher in public and private schools, and consulting in interpersonal communication, stress and time management.

Esther Vexler was Diana's first yoga teacher for 15 years until Diana moved to Austin in 1985 with her husband Jerry and son Jeremy.   Once in Austin Jim Gordon of ILM.org became her meditation teacher and continues to be.

Yoga, meditation, music, the natural universe, life and career have all taught Diana ways of aligning Body, Mind and Soul. Yoga Diana is an expression of all this!

Diana currently is a yoga trainer and instructor at Body Business Health Club & Spa in Austin, Texas. She is certified by Fitour in hatha yoga.
