Meghan’s Bio: I have been unrolling my mat to stretch and breathe since 2010. What attracts me to yoga is the genuine feeling of wellness both in my body and mind at the end of each practice. I enjoy exploring all styles of yoga and often incorporate multiple techniques in each class. Variety is the spice of life, and I work hard to bring something new to our practice each time we meet. When I’m not on my mat, you’ll probably see me walking my dogs or telling my kids to get off their phones. Vinyasa flow classes every Tuesday/Thursday and Friday at 8:30 AM in the main suite 350.
