Michelle started practicing yoga 10 years ago and was completely hooked. She was going through a rough time and yoga opened up a door of healing and presence that she so deeply needed in her life at that time.  She knew that it was going to become a part of her everyday life and it did.  She has been teaching for about 6 years but officially certified for 3 years. She has studied the 8 limbs of yoga extensively and continues to be a student.  She loves vinyasa, and hatha style. Expect a fun, and intuitive class truly led from the heart! Michelle believes that yoga is all about listening to the body, which is always communicating to us.  She likes to challenge students but always offers variations so they may flow to their ability.  Michelle aims to leave her students feeling peaceful, strong, and grounded in their bodies after a flow with her.  She hopes to inspire enjoyment and bliss in your individual practice.

For the past 25 years, Maria has been teaching in the public school system.  Her yoga journey began during a time that was not only healing for her physically, but mentally and emotionally.  From that space, she found her passion in creating yoga practices that are an open space for all, whether you are a beginner or experienced yogi.  Maria believes all are welcome and you should come as you are because it is your time to heal.  Holding space to practice yoga is a way to combine her passion for teaching with her passion in practicing pranayama and asanas to help yogis to get peace, harmony, balance, and fitness.
