Michelle

Michelle is a life long Boston resident and community activist working in many non profits throughout the city and an “accidental yogi”.   She is a breast cancer survivor who discovered yoga after the tragic death of her sister.  Feeling depressed and unhealthy, she knew she needed a change.  She decided to give yoga a try.  After attending a Monday evening session in March 2017 at age 51, she was exhausted and had no idea what she was doing.  She started doing private sessions with studio owner, David Vendetti while attending classes in the evenings.  She was originally focused on yoga classes but began taking Pilates classes and strength building classes.  She was hooked and the changes soon came – she lost weight, got more range of motion and stands taller.  She continued practicing and in June 2021 she completed her first 500 hour Yoga Teacher Training with the Yoga Liberation Front led by David Vendetti and completed her second 500 hour Yoga Teacher Training in April 2022 at the age of 56. 

Her mission  is to encourage everyone at any age to try Yoga through her signature hybrid class “Strong Foundations” that combines yoga, strength building and all the props.  Be prepared to laugh, work your glutes and abs and feel stronger in your body.
