Teresa Lebron
As a retired Dancer of stage, film and television for 15 + yrs. throughout my career I was exposed to Yoga and would practice when I could in between dance jobs. It helped me to maintain and balance Mind, Body and Spirit. In time I truly fell in love with the practice. It not only replaced dance for me and healed me from some curve balls life tends to throw, it lead me to understanding my passion, my purpose. Yoga not only for me but for others I have witnessed has proven to be life changing physically, mentally and emotionally. For me… I cannot live without my Faith or my Yoga and being able to spread this wealth of knowledge and experience is a dream come true.
