Meet the Teachers

I have been practicing yoga for 7 years, and I will be learning and growing in my personal practice for the next 75. I recently graduated from USU with a Bachelors in Psychology and a Yoga minor, and am using my degree to professionally train puppies in Clarkston. The class I am teaching combines two of my biggest loves: puppies and yoga. Come join in on the fun and chaos! My other hobbies include: hiking, video and board games, kayaking, biking, sun bathing, Netflix marathons, and being with my husband and dog.

Hi! I am Makenna, I am a 200RYT. I am so excited to teach and share what yoga has to offer! I have learned that pranayama (breathing techniques) and Asanas (physical postures) practiced together make for a healing meditative state. we can balance our mind, body, and spirit through yoga. I started to practice yoga when I lived in Kauai, Hawaii for a couple years. I took a break after moving back to the mainland. After a big life change, I found myself lost and not sure where to turn. I found my way back to yoga, and it saved my life. Yoga is a time to explore the universe within yourself, and what a beautiful journey it is. so please come join me in my class for self-discovery. I am yoga alliance certified through Yoga assets.

“Yoga is the space that I so longingly try to create in my life, in my body, and in my mind. It is my breath, and your breath, the heartbeat of when we breathe together. It is simply a path taken in discipline that I travel while relishing each moment along the way"
