Meet Rachel

Rachel started her yoga journey in college where she quickly fell in love with the physical practice. In 2010, Rachel lost her brother to a drunk driver and she delved deeper into the practice of yoga; both physically, mentally, and emotionally. She completed her 200 hour certification in the Pocono's in 2010. In 2017, she completed her 500 hour teacher training at Kripalu in Massachusetts. Rachel also holds her BS in early childhood, elementary, and special education. She holds her masters in education. She loves working with children of all ages and introducing them to yoga. Rachel holds additional yoga certifications in Prenatal, kids, yin, chair yoga, vinyasa, and sound healing. When Rachel’s not only her mat, you can find her

spending time with her husband, two daughters, one son, and three dogs. They enjoy hiking, exploring, and traveling.

How did you discover your passion for movement?

I was an athlete throughout school and college playing soccer and field hockey.

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

I love the BYDF community!

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

A teacher!

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

My personal practice has helped me heal and discover myself since the first time I stepped on my mat in college. It helped me through the loss of my brother. Through life changes and moves, ups and downs.

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

I love to be creative on the mat and find different ways to move and flow to a great playlist.

Tell us a little more about yourself or what are you up to when you're not in the studio?

I love to be outside! Hiking, paddle boarding, hanging out with my kids and husband. I also love to read and travel.
