Dena is a Registered Yoga Teacher (RYT) with Yoga Alliance, which acknowledges the completion of a yoga teacher training with a Registered Yoga School (RYS). Her emphasis is in Hatha and gentle yoga. As a military veteran, Dena finds a balanced yogic lifestyle is the best prescription for whole body health. Hatha yoga is a gentle, slower paced style of yoga made of Pranayama (Breathwork), Asana (Positions or Poses), and Meditation. Together the three foster the mind body connection by easing anxiety and practicing mindfulness. She enjoys teaching the fundamentals because the benefits of mastering the fundamentals can be enjoyed both on and off the mat.
