Barbie has been living in the Atlanta area for 13 years. She began practicing yoga as a way to relieve stress and spend time with herself. After years of practicing at a local studio, another instructor suggested she take the Teacher Training program. With no intention of teaching, Barbie completed her 200-hour program, but, of course, found herself loving it and want to share the practice of yoga with others.

Barbie is currently enrolled in a 300-hour yoga program to deepen her practice and learn more about the tenets of yoga so that she may continue to more fully spread love and peace to her students. When she’s not teaching, Barbie is a photographer and digital media artist. She enjoys hiking, climbing, and camping with her boyfriend Travis and their dog, Mika.
