Our Vision

Doing what I love and sharing my passion for Yoga is what inspires me.  Upstart Yoga was born out of finding a way to combine years of training skills and knowledge with an opportunity to serve the Yoga community as a Yoga teacher.  We create unique yoga experiences that ignite the body, mind and soul.  These experiences provide a continuum for a personal yoga practice or a team practice for special wellness events to achieve optimal health and happiness for all.
