Natalie is a certified yoga teacher, meditation teacher, and sound practitioner. Originally from Boston, she received her Yoga teacher certification with Radiant Yoga, where restorative justice, body liberation, and an inclusive environment are emphasized. She has been practicing yoga for many years and holds over 500 hours of combined meditation teacher training, yoga teacher training, and Tibetan Buddhist studies.
When a finance job led her to Manhattan in 2014, yoga became her sanctuary away from the daily grind and burnout she was experiencing. She also came into the healing power of meditation and deep study in Buddhist philosophy and subsequently became a 200-hour accredited meditation teacher through the Three Jewels Enlightenment Studio in New York. Her aim as a teacher is to serve individuals of all backgrounds and help them embrace mindfulness, self-care, and living authentically. She has learned that yoga encompasses far more than achieving physically challenging poses, and her goal is to teach others how to practice yoga both on and off the mat.
Apart from teaching, she is a musician, artist, avid fiction reader, and proud dog mom to Dante, her Australian shepherd.
