Vanessa was originally drawn to yoga after college because she was interested in the physical benefits of the practice. Through regular practice at a local hot yoga studio in her hometown of Maryville, TN, she soon discovered the incredible mental and emotional benefits of yoga. The mental clarity that she gets from regular practice is now the most important part of yoga for her. She completed a 200hr YTT program at Alchemy Flow of Maryville (Tennessee) from October 2024 to April 2025. After completing her in-person YTT requirements, she relocated to Waterford. CT. The last step of her training to obtain her certification is to teach community classes, which is what led her to teaching at Hot on Bank. Vanessa is very excited and grateful to join the yoga community at Hot on Bank and wants her classes to be a calming and supportive sanctuary for students of all backgrounds. Her goal is to teach others that yoga is so much more than what we do on the mat; it is a lifelong practice that can be translated into everyday life.
