flexibility, but it wasn't until a few years later that she discovered yoga is more focused on breath awareness and calming the mind. Alexandra's life has
been transformed in many ways through her yoga journey, and she believes it can be a powerful tool to dig deep within ourselves and uncover our true nature.
Her dedication to her practice led her to complete her 200-hour Yoga Alliance certification in 2010 as well as Vinyasa Teacher Training with Seane Corn, an

Kim Goad - Yoga |
I began my yoga journey in a gym in 1999, looking for something more fulfilling than cardio exercise. What I found changed the course of my life. I found peace, opening, strength, and healing. Yoga has been with me through thick and thin, and I plan to be on my mat until the day I lay in final savasana.
I began teaching in 2005, and finally earned my 500 RYT in 2009. My passion is sharing the joy that comes when the mind and body are joined by the breath, and the left brain blessedly takes a back seat. I thrive on learning more and sharing the process with those that join me on the mat.
