Bhakti Wellness Celebrates 5 Years! Win FREE Yoga All Month Long!

As Bhakti Wellness celebrates 5 years of business, I take a moment to look back at the path that led me to the present moment.  One of the goals of yoga is to stay in the present moment, but it doesn't hurt to sometimes reflect on the lessons learned, the experiences that shaped us and the people we met along the way.

Back in 2009, I completed my first training with YogaFit. As part of the requirement to teach, community service hours were required and I began teaching at St. James Catholic Church in Novi.  As a previous member and life-long Catholic, it was comfortable and paved the way for my return to the parish.  I continued teaching well past my requirement as I found much fulfillment out of the time and relationships.

My YogaFit trainings continued with Level 2, 3 and Anatomy.  It was in Level 2 that I learned some very basic information about Chakras.  My interest in the energy body and Chakra system grew and I dove into study and began to offer assessments and now can provide balancing with crystals, essential oils and yoga asanas.

I have brought diversity to my practice through teaching throughout the Novi/Northville area at The Sports Club of Novi, Novi Civic Center, as well as Powerhouse Gym Novi and South Lyon.  It was with heartfelt gratitude that I provided yoga relief for the walkers of the 3-Day Breast Cancer Walk in 2010.  

Wellness events and seminars include NGK Spark Plugs (USA), Inc., Allegis Global Solutions, VegFest, Crazy Wisdom Bookstore,  Novi Chamber of Commerce, Plymouth Study Club, 5-hour ENERGY ®  and more.
 

In the Bhakti Studio I specialize in a private or semi-private practice where I can assist students in their individual needs, fitness levels and abilities.  I have been blessed with new clients each year and in 2013 I began two new modalities: corporate yoga and event yoga. Being flexible both physically and professionally allow for change and new opportunities.  Yoga has allowed me to be just that, flexible! I am proud to be the official yoga instructor for the makers of 5-hour ENERGY ®  

As an avid writer I have also written many articles that can be found electronically and in print at gaimtv.com, selfgrowth.com, mj-yoga.blogspot.com, and Artisan's Well Magazine.  I have also been featured in an article in Metro You Magazine, Sept. 2012, in an article about private yoga. 

With all of that said, I am pleased to announce a month-long celebration beginning today, December 1, 2014.  Follow the promotions on my Facebook page and after you "like", share or comment on the daily post, you will be entered to win FREE yoga or fabulous prizes provided by 5-hour ENERGY ®. 

*Free yoga certificates expire 3 months from issuance.  Not redeemable for cash. Session is one hour only and requires 24-hour cancellation after confirming appointment or certificate becomes invalid. Appointments are based on availability.  Limited nights and Saturday appointments available. Not open Sunday.
