Yoga to Olivia is a special relationship between mind, body and breath. Through her own years of refinement, practice and education she believes yoga is a great addition to anyone’s lifestyle and enjoys instructing students whether they are seeking more flexibility, improved fitness or spiritual balance.
Olivia graduated her 200 hour yoga teacher training in March of 2019 and began her path to 500 hour certification in September of 2019, graduating in September 2020 with 500 hour designation. Olivia is a strong believer that as a yoga instructor, she should maintain personal development and hold continuous goals to stay inspired with long-term vision and short-term motivation.
Through the lens of her curiosity, she has achieved her ERYT 200 (Expert Registered Yoga Teacher) which requires 1000 hours of lead teaching time and minimum 2 years as a yoga instructor.
In May 2021, Olivia was happy to achieve her 25 hour prenatal certification. As a mother of two, offering moms-to-be prenatal yoga is very important to Olivia.
Olivia enjoys continuing education in many diverse disciplines and received her 25 hour Stand Up Paddleboard Yoga Certification in August 2022 to be able to offer her community more variety of yoga classes.
Olivia’s background is in environmental science so often the scientist is reflected in her style of teaching. She enjoys sharing her knowledge of the physical benefits of yoga asanas and draws attention to the biology of the pose so her students bring awareness to the body and explore how they feel in the posture.
