I HAVE BEEN PRACTICING YOGA SINCE MY FIRST YEAR OF COLLEGE IN 2010, AND AS OF SUMMER 2020,
I AM A 200HR REGISTERED YOGA TEACHER.
​I TEACH VINYASA, ROCKET, AND BOTH PRENATAL + POSTNATAL YOGA CLASSES.

WHAT A DECADE, RIGHT?
​
BACK THEN, YOGA WAS NOTHING MORE THAN A WAY TO PASS A CLASS (I MEAN, HELLO?! IT ENDS WITH A TEN MINUTE NAP.. I'LL TAKE THREE PLEASE!)

FROM THERE, IT WAS MOSTLY "LOOK AT THIS COOL POSE I CAN DO!" WHICH DEVELOPED INTO ME PRACTICING PRANAYAMA (BREATH CONTROL) UNKNOWINGLY. ​

SIDEBAR-- ALL YOGIS (INCLUDING MYSELF) ARE ALWAYS TALKING ABOUT BREATHING AND TO BE COMPLETELY HONEST, YOU REALLY DON'T GET IT UNTIL YOU'RE UPSIDE DOWN AND STILL ABLE TO HAVE A FULL CONVERSATION. BUT, THAT'S A STORY FOR ANOTHER TIME.
​
TODAY, I AM TECHNICALLY A TEACHER, BUT STILL VERY MUCH A STUDENT. ONCE YOU GET OVER THE AESTHETICS OF YOGA AND REALIZE IT'S SO MUCH MORE THAN WEARING SPANDEX AND DOING SPLITS, YOU'RE IN IT FOR LIFE!

YOGA STARTED WITH AN EASY A AND EXPANDED INTO A NEVER-ENDING PATH OF SELF DISCOVERY AND GROWTH.​
