Mo - Yoga Teacher

Wanting to understand why yoga helped her cope, reduce stress, and ease anxiety, she completed her 200-hour training with YogaJo's in Milngavie. She has since trained in Ashtanga yoga, yoga philosophy, Yoga as a Therapeutic Tool, Yoga for Health through the Yoga in Healthcare Alliance, and Lakshmi Voelker Chair Yoga.
