FAQs
- How did you get started doing this type of work?
I was always interested in a healthy lifestyle, which includes not only taking care of my body, but also my mind and spirit. This interest led me to a discovering yoga as a practice that balanced my body/mind/spirit. I learned how to teach yoga and several years later, opened up a full-service yoga studio in Hermosa Beach, CA, called Planet Yoga. I owned and operated the studio for 16 years. I sold it five years ago to dedicate my time specifically to teaching teachers and developing programming for other yoga companies and yoga instructors who wanted to run yoga studio businesses.
- What types of customers have you worked with?
Yoga lessons for those injured, chronic pain management, and lead yoga teacher trainings. I develop personal yoga "recipes" to heal and manage pain. I also teach other yoga instructors how to do the same. I teach small group classes, too. I consult yoga studio owners on how to set up their yoga front desk services and scheduling needs. I also present at yoga and fitness conferences around the United States and Canada.
- What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?
Ask them about their training and length of experience.
