Rachel
Rachel grew up in Upstate, Ny and has lived in Austin for 9 years where she discovers something new in the city every day. She has been teaching yoga for 9 years! She is 500-hour Yoga Alliance certified and teaches all varieties of yoga. She would describe her classes as challenging, yet attainable where students can expect to sweat, strengthen, stretch, shimmy and shake. Rachel’s ‘other’ job when she is not teaching yoga is in Recreation and Aquatic Therapy where she guides people with different abilities to find the benefits of movement and leisure. Her favorite activities outside of yoga are staying active with her two dogs, Daisy and Pepper Jack. She frequents the dog park, enjoys going to dinner with friends and having movie nights with her partner. Rachel says teaching has been one of the most rewarding experiences because of the students and the community. She has learned a lot about herself and her abilities to adapt, lead and let her creativity run wild.
