Our Vision...
Our goal is to provide an authentic Yoga Center for the community in order to make the
many benefits of yoga practice more accessible to people in this area.
Our focus is to create an environment which is peaceful, welcoming and safe, where
people with varying yoga experience and physical ability can develop greater awareness
about the state of their bodies and the quality of their minds, while recharging their spirits.
We, at Inner Light Yoga Center, believe that Yoga is much more than a physical practice;
it is also a way of living with mindfulness and awareness. We are committed to making a
positive impact on the lives of others in our community and around the world, and to treat
our environment with the respect it deserves. Therefore, we will donate a percentage of
our profits to programs and charities that empower people and protect the environment. In
addition, whenever possible, we will purchase goods for use at the center and for resale
that are environmentally and socially responsible, promoting fair trade and fair
compensation for artisans.
Our Yoga Styles...
All of the teachers at Inner Light Yoga Center are fully trained and Certified Yoga
Teachers. The styles of yoga we offer include the core principles as a foundation: Hatha
yoga postures (asanas), breathing practice (pranayama), linking movement with breath,
respecting your body's current physical state and working at your individual level, quieting
and focusing the mind (meditation), and rejuvenating the body after practice in deep
relaxation (savasana). Inner reflection and a graceful flow of postures with the breath
(vinyasa) are emphasized. The structure of each class style varies by each teacher's
training and experience. We invite you to try all of our styles!
Our Teachers...
Tarra Piparo Madore DC, E-RYT, Director
While studying philosophy in high school, Tarra became intrigued by Eastern thought, the concept of
living in harmony with nature and the power of the human mind. She pursued her interests at Rider
University and graduated in 1994 with a BA in Psychology and minors in Philosophy and Social Work.
Tarra’s path to becoming a psychologist was changed when she began receiving chiropractic
adjustments and discovered the amazing alignment and harmony she felt in her body. Her desire to
share this with others and to help people without the use of medication led her to attend Palmer College
of Chiropractic in Iowa from 1996 to 1999. It was there that a friend introduced Tarra to yoga because it fit
well with both her beliefs and her pursuit of natural health. She began to practice extensively at a nearby
yoga studio in the Iyengar tradition.
Upon returning to New Jersey, Tarra opened the Chiropractic Health Center of North Brunswick. She
continued to practice various yoga styles and completed a three year certification in Prenatal and
Pediatric Chiropractic through the Palmer Institute for Professional Advancement. As her love for yoga
grew, Tarra developed a desire to teach it. She completed the Yoga Teacher Training program in Hatha
Yoga at Freehold Yoga Center, a Yoga Alliance registered training program. This program emphasizes
the strong traditional lineage of yoga brought over from India by followers of Master Sivananda.
Tarra brings a wealth of knowledge to her yoga classes and teaches a blend of styles from which she
has practiced with an emphasis on balance and alignment. Tarra brings her extensive knowledge about
the human anatomy and physiology, as well as, the deeper study of philosophy to all her classes. She
allows students to fully experience yoga in its true tradition.
