Lindsay began doing yoga at home with YouTube videos but quickly fell out of it when she had no accountability. After taking her first yoga class, she fell in love with the community she found. After sticking to yoga classes for over a year now, Lindsay feels like she has found a whole new person inside that she's slowly unlocking.

She was a classroom teacher for 10 years and is an avid horse rider. Lindsay combined her love for yoga with her career by introducing her students to pranayama and asana techniques to calm their bodies and minds. She is a graduate of the 200 and 300 hour teacher training from the Yoga Power School Class of 2019 -20. 

Lindsay currently works as an Independent Educational Consultant at Jamie Dickenson, LLC in Charleston where she specializes in working with students in grades K-7.  She dedicates her time to educating students of all ages in yoga and loves to see when students "get it".  
When the sun is rising or setting, there is a magical feeling in the air, that of the light changing and another day beginning or ending. This is the perfect time to practice yoga and remind yourself to let go of the daily things you can't control.

Sunrise and Sunset Yoga offer you the perfect time to be out in nature and feel like you are on top of the world with the breathtaking view from Snowshoe Mountain.
