ANDREA - a full time Yoga, Pilates and Tai Chi instructor.

I fell in love with yoga over seven years ago, when I got a Nintendo DS and bought a game called Let's Yoga. From then, I began 'playing' yoga everyday, sometimes twice a day. At first, the practice was more physical for me, but after few months I started to really count on yoga to bring me a sense of calm during especially chaotic days. Soon after, I began recognizing the benefits of a regular asana and meditation practice and continued to incorporate yoga daily - not just during times of chaos. I found myself feeling more energized, more compassionate, happier, and with more awareness. Now, I teach full-time and couldn't be happier to do what I love. What began as a physical practice for strength and flexibility quickly became a lifestyle. I teach my students to take their yoga off the mat and apply the principles learned in the class to their lives outside of the studio. I do not only teach my philosophy, I live it.

Release What No Longer Serves You




As we breathe through our asana practice, 
we are reminded to release tension; 
to let go of tension in the body, as well as tension in the mind. 
As we live our lives off of our yoga mats, very often we cling. 
We cling to our habits, relationships, and attachments even if they no longer serve us.


Learning to release what no longer serves may be our greatest challenge, but one that will reveal a reservoir of self-love with depths we have never imagined
