Her love of yoga and desire to share it with as many people as possible has lead her to her dream of opening a studio. Mindy teaches a vinyasa (flowing) style of hatha yoga. Mindy teaches anything from beginners to advanced classes including a fun and flowing weight loss and toning yoga class. She has also been trained in pre-natal, kids, and seniors yoga. She believes that yoga is for everyone and looks for the beauty of the pose in individual bodies rather than trying to fit everyone into an ideal posture.
