“When my mental health was at a low, I turned to yoga using YouTube videos to help. I then hesitantly signed up to begin taking classes in a studio and quickly fell in love with how yoga supported my mind and body. My practice continues to evolve day to day, supporting me both on and off the mat in what serves me best at that moment. I knew I wanted to give to others what yoga has given to me, so when BY announced they were offering YTT I knew it was something I wanted to do. I am originally from Fredericksburg, VA and moved to Gastonia 5 years ago with my husband and sons. In our home we have a snuggly cat, and outside we have a flock of chickens and a guard turkey! Off my mat you can find me in the woods on a hike or reading a book in my garden.”
