Hello,
My name is Amanda Carnes. I am a Yoga Practitioner. I began my journey when I was involved in a MVA back in 2013. I had to go through rehabilitation and therapy for a few years. As a mother of 3 young children I was not recovering and healing the way I was expecting too. So, I decided to incorporate yoga into my daily life. After a consistent practice of yoga and Reiki for 2 years I was able to heal my whole body and soul. Yoga helped me regain my strength, stamina, and mindset. I wanted to share my story with others and teach them that there are other modalities to help us heal. In November 2020 I graduated Yoga Teacher Training 200hrs. In February 2020 I graduated Reiki Master/Practitioner/Teacher Certification. I than proceeded into graduating from the Advanced Yoga Teacher Training 300hrs in 2021. I'm still educating myself and curranty taking Structural Alignment Yoga Therapy Certification 200Hrs and Trauma Informed Yoga Teacher Training 200Hrs.
I have been honored to be a part of the MOVATI Athletics team as an Instructor, and team member. Through MOVATI I have been trained and certified as a Group Fitness Instructor, and Aqua Fitness Instructor. I teach 7 classes a week that consist of Hatha Yoga, Yin Yoga, Essential Yoga, and Aqua Bootcamp. I have also had the privilege to be a leader and participate in MOVATI's Pop-up Events, Workshops, and Lead Events.
In 2022 I was nominated for Yoga Warrior 2022 an International Tittle. I made it all the way through to Semi-Finalist where I placed 3rd for my category.
In my spare time I enjoy spending time with my family, going on outings and site seeing, reading, learning about anything new, and teaching others on spirituality, soul searching, and meditation.
Yoga has changed my life and I love teaching.
I'm looking forward to sharing my story and teaching those all around the world.
Love - Light - Gratitude
Amanda J. Carnes
