I graduated with a degree in Business and Marketing from the University of South Florida in 2013. As I began to get my “adult” life in order I began working at a digital marketing agency while simultaneously falling in love with yoga. Once I decided to do my teacher training I never looked back. Being a young marketer at a startup agency, I found myself being constantly pulled back to yoga and I found out pretty early on that corporate life wasn’t the life for me. So with my new yoga teaching certificate I left my 9-5 job. 

Now, it wasn’t an immediate success story and I had a lot of struggles in the beginning of my yoga career. I don’t think I’d recommend to others to completely leave your stable job to make the leap into yoga especially if you’re just starting out. I went the route of doing lots of side hustles and muscled my way into making this work. But, more on that later. 

As I began growing my yoga career I realized that my business and marketing background was working in my favor. I was able to get ahead and make my yoga teaching into a career instead of just one of my many side hustles. 

I know how hard it can be to make ends meet through yoga and I want to show teachers that yes they can make yoga into an actual career for them and not just a side hustle.
