XOXO, Chlorophyll Water
Creator of The HOPE Process & CEO of Mother Trucker Yoga
Madison, Wisconsin
Yoga was my platform to help others, inspire others, lead others, guide others to dig deep and grow. And every step I guided others to do that, I was also doing it for myself. Years passed and I eventually began leading yoga teacher training's, I created my own methodology to movement and core integration. I began to learn to allow, rather than force life and life showed me its blessings.
Professional Yoga and Astrology Teacher
Eugene, Oregon
Mainly, I teach AstroYoga. This type of yoga is based on the incorporation of yoga’s sister science (astrology) into the practice. AstroYoga uses the timing of planetary transits to grant depth to group practices, and to ensure that yoga practices are in harmony with nature and the larger cosmos.

Aquatic Therapy Rehab Institute Certified & Aquatic Fitness
Gulport, FL
Aqua yoga is my focus because it is kind to people's joints and is so accessible. It's an easy way to start a yoga practice, it allows people who've lost a land practice to continue, and challenges people with an active land practice to explore their bodies in new ways.
Yoga & Meditation Coach
Santa Monica, CA
My practice has evolved greatly over the last 30 years. As a young yogi, I loved intensity and spent hours in Bikram studios in New York City. The pursuit of intense sensation above all else leads to injury, and I've had mild injuries (not all caused by yoga) that have loosened my definition of what constitutes a personal practice. Academically, I've studied Ashtanga, Vinyasa, Restorative, Iyengar, as well as Transcendental Meditation and Zen Meditation.
Certified Yoga Instructor
Shanti Yoga School, Founder & Lead Instructor
I am currently in Varkala, a beautiful small village on a cliff overlooking the ocean in the state of Kerala, India. There is an amazing yoga scene here, even during the slower, wet monsoon season. And I have these amazing teachers giving me undivided attention. It's a gift.
