Meet Angie

Angie is passionate about bringing her love and knowledge of yoga to everyone, at every level of experience. She first began practicing yoga while in high school. She strayed from her practice in her 20’s but came back to it in her 30’s to get some much needed and deserved healing.

Yoga provided her tools to help heal past trauma and the clarity to see that what she wanted was to be in a studio, teaching others yoga.

Angela is a 200 hour certified Kripalu Yoga Teacher and is also certified in Kripalu Vinyasa. She has learned that there is a yoga practice for every body, and everybody can benefit from a yoga practice. Angela’s classes invite students to focus on their breath while they safely find and explore the edges of their physical practice.

She’s continually amazed at what the seemingly simple act of breathing can do for the mind and body. When off the mat, Angela spends time canoeing and wading around rivers and lakes with her significant other while pretending she’s an angler.

How did you discover your passion for movement?

I began attending yoga classes at a local gym while in high school. They were more appealing to me than my high school classes so occasionally I'd choose the yoga class over the school class.

What is the most inspiring thing about teaching students at BYDF?

Witnessing students adapting poses to serve their bodies always inspires me. Making the yoga, the movement and breath, work for them.

Flashback to your childhood. What do you want to be when you grow up?

The president of the USA. I'm so relieved that didn't work out.

How has your personal movement practice helped develop your sense of self and pave the way for self-discovery and healing?

The path of Yoga is a lifelong journey to find my true self, my bliss. While I may, or may not, reach the end of that path in this life, Yoga has already helped me gain perspective to see what matters most to me and prioritize accordingly.

What do you want people to know about your teaching style and classes at BYDF?

I love to offer options and variations in all of my classes so students can meet their bodies wherever they're at in that moment, and, when they're ready, find the edges of their practice to grow it.
