Meet Our Founder
Amber
Amber was introduced to yoga in college two decades ago but did not maintain a consistent practice. Recently, she has relied on yoga more often and started on a journey to help deepen her practice. She became a 500-hour Registered Yoga Instructor (500RYT) and continues to learn and grow from her practice daily. As we all know, life can be joyful and challenging, and using yoga off the mat has helped Amber learn to remain present in each moment. Learning from amazing instructors at various studios has helped her personal yoga practice evolve.
Amber teaches many styles of yoga and breathwork, which has expanded her practice in unimaginable ways and hopefully, in turn, helps others as well.
Amber is a certified Level 2 Sound Healer. Sound Experiences are offered upon request or in conjunction with sessions. Let the sound surround you and create positive energy in your body.
Amber is certified in Mindful Eating, Children's Yoga, IET, Reiki
Amber has a BA in Psychology, Masters in Special Education, and Supervisor’s Certification in Education. During the day, she is one of the lucky ones who enjoys teaching middle school students and evenings spending time with her husband and three children.
Amber’s playful approach to life and yoga helps her teach different levels of the practice and make a connection with others.

Danielle
Danielle is married with three crazy beautiful daughters, and her family has been a huge inspiration for her yoga journey. Her practice began in 2013, and from that moment on, yoga has always been a safe place for her to ground herself, catch a breath, and relieve anxiety.
In 2018, after having a second daughter, the need and pull for something more than just taking yoga classes while being a mom of two was strong for Danielle. She went on to complete her 200-hour Vinyasa certification, led by the inspirational Erica Stanzione at Flow Yoga Studio in Ho-Ho-Kus, NJ.
In April 2024, Danielle expanded her knowledge and love of the practice by completing her 300-hour certification, making her a 500 RYT.
Today, Danielle thrives to share this amazing opportunity with others. Whether it be to help guide them to a deeper understanding of the practice, or to assist as they go through this amazing journey of life.
Danielle also has a connection with healing and has her Reiki Level 2 certification led by the lovely Toni Chianetta.
