Brandi Bissland

Brandi is a 500 ERYT/YACP Pittsburgh native turned Jersey girl. After practicing off and on for 20+ years Brandi made the decision in 2015 to make yoga a priority and enrolled in a 200 YTT program.

In 2020 as her Asana practice took a backseat due to the pandemic and she fell in love with Bhakti Yoga, the yoga of love and devotion. She is heavily involved with the Bhakti community and attends regular programs that consist of classes/lectures, kirtan, and prasadam distribution (sangha).

Students in Brandi’s class will be guided in a practice focused on breath and movement. Brandi will plant seeds of Bhakti in a way that is accessible for everyone. She hopes that by serving as a yoga teacher she can make every student feel comfortable, safe, and welcome. Brandi holds a certification for Crystal Energy Healing and Holistic Tarot Card Reading and is Reiki 1 certified (with plans to do level 2 and 3).  Brandi also plays the harmonium and leads a monthly community kirtan. She incorporates mantra and chanting into her classes and also offers sound healing with various instruments to purify and connect us to a higher vibration.

Brandi took her spiritual name (Diksha), Radharani, in October of 2020. In June of 2022 she became co-lead of Honor Yoga’s 200 hour YTT program. Brandi leads powerful Women’s only Yoga Retreats focusing on leading us back to our Self and awaken female divinity.
