Emily took her 1st yoga class in 2021 as a way to get together with friends & be involved in the Pittsburgh fitness community. Growing up an athlete, Emily was always drawn towards more intense forms of working out and was reluctant to give yoga a try for so long, until she began to notice the mental benefits that came with slowing down, and connecting the mind and body.
Emily completed her 200hr training in 2024 at Amazing Yoga, and is also certified in Yin which is the perfect balance to the ‘Yang’ in her practice and in her busy life.
