Our Mission
Wellness Empowered Yoga is designed to simplify the unknown and break things down, explaining how and why things work. The goal is to educate while teaching, instead of only facilitating an experience. Learning what to take from the mat to everyday life will lead to feeling better physically, mentally, and emotionally. The concept is to make yoga relatable, practical and straightforward. Teaching the benefits of yoga, breathwork, meditation, and sound healing, and how to use it to your advantage.
We build on the ancient philosophies of yoga and healing, as well as modern science and new research. These modalities are about science and anatomy, using the body’s natural capabilities to heal, recover, and grow. Our offerings provide the ability to use the body and the breath to pull ourselves out of “fight or flight” and put ourselves back into “rest and relaxation”. There are many different ways to tap into ourselves and help change our own lives. Let’s get started.
Hi, I’m Maria!
Before I began, anytime someone would mention the word “yoga”, I always thought of someone sitting still on a cushion, or a glorified stretching class. Then, like most people in their lives, I became burnt out, stressed, and anxious, and was told to try yoga. I was very reluctant at first, but after weeks of fighting it, eventually went to my first class.
After that first time, I felt better. I couldn’t quite understand or explain how, but I did. I began attending all different styles of classes, and discovered what types I liked over others. It was clear why my body was becoming stronger, more flexible, and more aligned. I still needed to understand why I was feeling better mentally and emotionally. After taking a yoga teacher training course, everything began to make sense. There are many things that aren’t communicated in the short amount of time we have during a class. I’d like to start changing that.
