    Hello!

    I have been doing yoga for a good 10+ years but have recently decided to get a certification. Yoga is a wonderful way to relax the mind, body, and spirit. It's also great to help shape a body!

    I look forward to interacting with you all!

    Namaste :)

    Hi, I'm Beka, and I've been practicing various forms of yoga for about 13 years. I graduated from the Institute for Integrative Nutrition in May. I'm here to meet like-minded people who are passionate about health & wellness.

    Bikram or just a studio in and of itself? I own my own studio.

    Hi All!
    My name is Natasha, and I have been practicing for over a year and a half. I practice mostly hot vinyasa, but then also occasionally take regular vinyasa classes to change things up. I am looking into getting my yoga certification once I have the extra funds and time, I feel like it would really strengthen my practice both physically and mentally.
    Around two years ago, I discovered that I have some gluten sensitivities, and I have recently been trending away from packaged and prepared foods. My goal is to switch over to a completely clean and whole-food diet.
    I'm excited to be a part of your group!

    Hi. My name is Live and I have practiced yoga for 13 years. I joined beacuse it is nice to be in a group with like-minded people. I started with the books of Vimla Lalvani, and is now following Ekhart yoga on youtube as well. With small children, it is easier to work out when it fits the family.

    When it comes to eating, I am the only one among my siblings and parents who does not take any medicine. I have been trying to eat healty for 20 years, and try to eat raw food.

    I am a casual yogi, and have been at the upper end beginner/lower to mid range intermediate level for YEARS. I enjoy my weekly community yoga night, but have slacked in the last few MONTHS! It is horrible. I want to get back into having yoga be a regular part of my life. I hear that once one gets really into it, that the clean diet part just comes along naturally. I hope this is the case, because I really need to start seeing sweets as the devil in disguise that they are!! Oh. And I want to do crow pose for longer than 2 seconds without being afraid I will end up with a bloody nose.

    Hi I'm Destree. I love yoga and I mostly practice at home but I am a going to be teaching yoga at a community center starting next month. I'm working on the clean eating deal but it's slow going. I definitely am better than I was 6 months ago but I try to have grace with myself so I don't paralyze my progress. Looking forward to interacting with you all!

    Hey I just found this group!!! My name is Amy, I'm 28 and 6 months ago I had my son. Since then I've been cleaning up my diet and committing to yoga, walking, and some running to keep healthy. I am at a lower weight now than I was before I got pregnant and I swear yoga and clean eating is all to thank!! Would love to meet some like-minded folks that believe like I do that a mat is one of the best ways to keep in shape : ) Would love to join in on this discussion groups and meet some new friends : )

    Hi, I am 36, live in Washington state and just recently got divorced. I put on too much weight while I was married after having kids and I am determined to get healthy this year!

    I am doing clean eating, intervals on the treadmill, yoga, walking my dogs and am thinking of adding weight lifting, but there are only so many hours in the day! I also work and go to school full time along with being a mom to two teenage boys. Writing this down makes my life look so much busier than it is! I make sure to take time for myself and once a week I just veg on the couch to decompress for a few hours with a good book or every once in awhile a Netflix marathon :)

    Nice to meet you all!
