Let me start off by saying "I Love Yoga". I started taking classes 9 years ago when I was having a hard time making friends in ABQ after moving here from Ohio. I left a life that I had spent 20+ years creating and the friendships were something I missed tremendously. I went to classes regularly in an effort to meet people and ended up falling in love with the practice! Through the years I would binge on the practice and then take small breaks from it. No matter where I was in my life, I always ended up coming back to my mat.  In June 2015, I decided to take a jump and enrolled in 200 hr Level 1 Ashtanga Teacher Training.  After receiving my certificate I then decided in September 2015 to start YogaZo so that I could bring classes to ABQ that were friendly for every level of Yogi and not intimidating.  Fast forward (through a lot of ups and downs) to the present time and YogaZo has taken a life that I couldn't have even imagined if I tried.  We are a close knit community that welcomes everyone from any walk of life.  Our goal of #yogagivingback has allowed us to donate over $37k and counting as well as given me the opportunity to meet a world of beautiful humans that I otherwise might not of had the chance to meet.
