Barbie G.

I am passionate about offering fun, safe, embodied yoga practices that are playful and inspiring. I teach yoga from a trauma-informed perspective and prioritize student comfort, wellbeing and sense of belonging in every class. I teach dynamic, breath-focused vinyasa and flow based classes as well as calming, grounding restorative practices

I approach vocation with an open mind and an open heart. I consider myself a lifelong student as well as a teacher. I strive to create space that is inclusive, compassionate and souldriven. I believe yoga has the power to transform and the power to heal and I consider it an honor to offer the practice.
