I am New Jersey through and through, as my interests described below illustrate I started life in Hoboken. Moving with my family to Jersey City, then Kearny and eventually made my way to my current home in North Arlington. After graduation from St. Peter’s Prep High School in Jersey City, it was on to Northeastern University, then Rutgers University in Newark and New Brunswick. I worked as a senior project manager until I changed course in 2006. I became a Paralegal and work at a major Construction Law firm. In person, you’d never guess that I have dropped a lot of weight and kept it off. Daily yoga practice helped me achieve my fitness goals. I started taking yoga classes out as a way to help me stay connected to my own journey toward greater wellbeing and healthy living back in 2017. I was quickly awakened to the fact that yoga could bring me everything I had ever wanted in a career: independence, freedom, flexibility, creativity, constant learning and growth. Other activities include camping, hiking, and backpacking. An especially fun fact that I think no one really knows is that I collect New Jersey antiques and artifacts. I own a 1935 deep-sea diving suit a/k/a Elle featured in an article I wrote in a recent issue of Weird NJ. The Elle photo (pictured) was one of four chosen to be featured on the first ever Weird NJ beer, a Jersey Lager, brewed at Heavy Reel Brewing Company in Seaside Heights, NJ. Next time you see me at the studio, ask me about rescuing the giant cat or a 100-foot flagpole from the Jersey City

Rhaea started her yoga journey as a way to supplement her cardio and weight training. Thinking it would only serve as active recovery, she surprisingly fell in love with how it made her feel physically, mentally, and emotionally. Rhaea wanted a way to share this experience with others, who may not realize the power of yoga, so she decided to become a RYT-200 in May 2024. Nowadays, she sees yoga as more than a supplement, but a way of life. She loves teaching creative and invigorating flows, as well as restful postures to soothe the body and mind.

A Jersey girl born and raised, Cassandra has been practicing yoga for over 12 years and has a background in dance, cheerleading, leadership, and all things that nurture your mental health. It wasn’t until she was faced with a cancer diagnosis that she truly embraced her yoga practice. Feeling betrayed by her body and overly stressed mind, she leaned heavily on her practice to find strength, self-love, acceptance, and peace of mind throughout her cancer journey. Although still living with her diagnosis, Cassandra credits her practice for giving her a new perspective on life, and the need to express her gratitude by bringing that energy to others. When she’s not teaching or commuting to NYC for work, you can find Cassandra spending time with her family and friends, hitting the gym, traveling or taking a much needed nap. Whatever it is, Cassandra is always finding ways to better herself, and the people around her while finding the balance for all that’s in between.
