Ryeleigh

yoga instructor

 

When I first started taking yoga I was looking for a fun class to tone up and gain a little more confidence. I was surprised when not only did I tone up a bit but I started noticing a peaceful inner strength growing as I practiced. I remember one of my earliest classes, taking Warrior 2 and thinking “Whoa! I’ve never felt this strength before!”. That inner strength led me to make changes in my life to be much happier, healthier and to find out what “I” truly loved.
Since then I have yearned to share that feeling with others. In 2021 I earned my 200 hr certification and have a passion for teaching classes that challenge my students while also leaving them feeling empowered.

Vinyasa & Mindfulness Teacher

Sherry Brokaw is a wife to an amazing man, mother to 6+ children, and Yaya to one beautiful granddaughter. I love reading, crocheting, kayaking, being in nature, and spending time with my family. While I found Yoga over 20 years ago, I didn’t start practicing more regularly until about two years ago. I decided that I would get my yoga teacher certification, because they were finally offering it online. It has been one of the best decisions I’ve ever made! I love teaching and practicing yoga, and love how much better I feel after doing it. I am a certified body talk practitioner, and I’m currently taking courses in mindfulness and foot zoning. I have also found and fell in love with Oracle cards and love doing readings for others. I feel truly blessed and honored to be at this amazing studio with these fantastic ladies.
