Yoga For All Certified Teachers

Along the way, Theresa offers her yoga and yoga therapy training to those on the path, as well as through her virtual practice through her website Returning2Balance.com. Theresa is certified at the 500 level through Yoga Alliance and is certified as a yoga therapist through the International Association of Yoga Therapists.

When I first began yoga, it was a challenge, and I almost gave up many times. My levels of flexibility and strength made many poses inaccessible. However, I didn't give up! I taught myself how to modify the poses to work for my body, and began to welcome the use of props in my practice. Although I was a casual practitioner of yoga for many years, I truly fell in love with my practice in 2015 as I was going through a time of depression in my life. Through meditation, breathing exercises, and the poses, I found a space of peace and quiet in my life and in my mind; I found balance. To put it bluntly: yoga saved me. After completing my 200 hour yoga teacher training in 2016 with Yoga Vibe in Los Angeles, California, I promised myself that I would help others find the magic in yoga without having to go through the hurdles I faced early on in my own practice. Today, I am a yoga teacher and a Reiki healer, sharing my love of yoga and alternative healing with the world!

I hope to continue to inspire others to embrace sitting on the cushion and taking the time for peace. I know from just teaching my spiritual classes that there is a desperate need right now for a calmer way to live in our seemingly chaotic world.

I have had many tragedies in my life, and I know meditation, yoga, and other relaxation techniques continued to help me to heal over the years. I am committed to assisting you in bringing the same transformation into your life so you may experience a steady calm and sense of peace.
