Hello, Erica!

Erica has been practicing yoga for as long as she can remember, she often jokes that yoga got into her! Erica has always loved to stretch and twist her body in every way possible, later in life, she learned those postures were a part of an entire 8 limbed practice called yoga!! Erica’s yoga practice is part dance and part moving meditation, it’s a spiritual and physical practice that keeps her grounded in her body and connected to higher spiritual energy. Erica recently fulfilled a long-time dream when she completed her 200-hour yoga training at Soul Yoga with Eva Whipple and followed it up with a 35 hour Yoga For All training that focuses on inclusivity and body positivity. 

When asked about a favorite class at Soul, Erica has a typical Libra answer… she loves them all because each brings something different to the practice. Her favorite class depends on her body’s needs that day. Lauren and Kayna both bring the fire in their own unique and awesome ways and help Erica stretch beyond her former limits. Roxy’s class is invigorating and contemplative, it’s the perfect class for spending time exploring complex postures. Claire is simply magical; her classes are the most self-caring and loving experiences. Cinzia’s classes are like a gentle fire and give students the chance to explore postures and bring in an element of moving meditation that Erica loves in yoga practice. Whatever class she attends, Erica knows she’ll be respected and taken care of.

Erica keeps it interesting in all aspects of her life and loves sharing crazy stories about her adventures. When you come to her class ask her about being invited to tea with dragon flies, the night she met a skunk in the woods, or the time she was attacked by an immortal mutant ninja flying roach. All true stories!
