Rachel was introduced to yoga at the age of 16 by an 80-year-old yogi named Ruby. Immediately inspired by Ruby’s flexibility and vitality, Rachel continued to immerse herself in asana practice throughout her young adult years and quickly learned yoga’s powerful ability to bring inner and outer balance to her life and began to explore the other branches that yoga offers.
