Rebekah’s philosophy on life and yoga is one of Balance. Rooting down to reach high. Diving deep to rise up. Connecting with Self to connect with All. Strength without flexibility yields brittleness–crumbling in the face of pressure. Flexibility without strength yields slack– inability to stand up on one’s own. Rebekah’s classes provide the space to cultivate strength and flexibility of both body and mind.
Coming to Asheville from Portland, Oregon, Rebekah brings experience as a School Counselor to her classes for teens. In 2018, she completed her 200YRT with YoYoYogi in Portland before starting her Master’s in Education which she completed in 2o2o. Rebekah’s focus throughout her program was developing a neuroscience and mindfulness curriculum to promote self-empowerment and provide tools for emotional regulation.
In her free time, Rebekah loves to play with her dog Shashi, cook, read, knit, or learn something new. Originally from Mississippi, Rebekah is happy to be back in the South and grateful to have settled in the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains.
