Cynthia C. - Instructor
Cynthia C., PhD, ERYT-200, RCYT, YACEP, began her yoga journey about 10 years ago to complement strength training and running. She enjoys an energetic, vigorous practice, but also slows things down (a little!). A lifelong learner and teacher both on and off the mat for the past decade, she enjoys studying all aspects of yoga.
She has completed numerous yoga trainings including the following: a 50-hour Level 1 Rocket Vinyasa Yoga training with David Kyle, Accessible Yoga Training, Yoga for All, Curvy Yoga, trauma-informed Yoga, Mindful Resilience with the Veteran’s Yoga Project, prenatal yoga, restorative yoga, trauma-informed yoga and Yoga for 12-Step Recovery (Y12SR) and has studied yoga in Spanish with Flying Tree Yoga in Medellin, Colombia. Cynthia is currently studying Progressive Ashtanga Vinyasa en español with Progressive Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga School in San Juan, Puerto Rico, and working on an additional 50-hour Rocket Vinyasa Yoga training with the BLM Global Rocket Collective in Houston. She is a certified children’s yoga teacher with Yogiños Yoga for Youth and serves as the Manager of Research for the organization and also facilitates trainings for future kid’s yoga teachers.
Cynthia is passionate about sharing yoga and mindfulness with teachers and children in US schools, and recently completed a certification in Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction for Teens (MBSR-T) and offers professional development to teachers and administrators on how to incorporate yoga and mindfulness in the classroom. She enjoys teaching both children and adults and is committed to making yoga accessible for all.
