Joy's path to yoga began on the dance floor. Years of training at a dance academy instilled in her a deep appreciation for movement, but also the harsh realities of physical limitations. Injuries took their toll, leading Joy to discover the healing power of yoga. Unlike the rigid routines of dance, yoga resonated with Joy's philosophy of listening to your body and moving with intention. It was here that she truly found joy (no pun intended) – the joy of movement that feels good, that nourishes the body and spirit. Being a singer as well, Joy intuitively began incorporating sound healing and live music into her classes. This fusion was a revelation. The vibrations of instruments like singing bowls resonated with the body during movement, creating a truly magical experience. With over 1000 hours of yoga training under her belt, Joy is now a passionate instructor dedicated to sharing the transformative power of yoga, enhanced by the beauty of live music. Her classes are a unique blend of movement, music, and self-discovery, inviting students to find their own rhythm and journey towards inner peace.
