Gina Bartiromo

I am a traveler at heart. I have lived in Australia, New Zealand and Canada and traveled to many other destinations over the years. My yoga specialty is in extra gentle or chair yoga for those who struggle with limitations (knee, hip, ankle injury; difficulty getting down to a mat; challenged in flow style yoga; older or physically challenged individuals).

I am a brain injury survivor and have overcome severe injuries from a hiking fall of 150+ ft down Yosemite's Half Dome. After 1 month of hospital stay, with a fractured skull, jaw, collar bone, rib and sacrum and 3 compression fractures of the spine, it is a complete miracle that I am a functional, painless individual. Thanks to physical therapy and yoga, I am in better shape than I've ever been! And though I teach gentle yoga, I adore vigorous flow yoga.

I am single with no children and eager to continue exploring the world. Teaching yoga while enjoying a resort setting sounds suburb!
