About Bree the Yogi


What began as a quiet practice has grown into the work I now feel deeply called to share.

I found yoga during a time of profound loss at 21, when I didn’t yet have the tools to process what I was experiencing. I wasn’t in therapy, and I didn’t have a clear path forward. One day, almost by accident, I found a simple at-home video.
It was immediate.

I fell in love with yoga right away.  The movements felt natural—a familiar rhythm shaped by years of cheer, dance, and gymnastics.  Something in me recognized it.  I knew in that moment I wanted to learn more, go deeper and make it part of my life.

What I didn’t expect was how much yoga would support me beyond the physical!

It was restorative yoga that opened the door to emotional healing.   With the support of props, I was able to soften, release and begin to access parts of myself that had been held tightly beneath the surface.   What started in my body began to move through something much deeper.

Over time, yoga became a place where I could slow down, feel what I had been holding and begin to process what I didn’t yet have words for. 

 Yoga helped me heal my heart and find connection to my body again.

Bree the Yoga Teacher

For nearly two decades, I’ve guided students through movement, breath, and stillness.

My approach blends functional movement, breath, and nervous system awareness with a simple understanding of what it means to be in a body. I care about how things feel just as much as how they look.

I believe in thoughtful sequencing, clear guidance, and creating space for both strength and softness.
I’m not here to lead a perfect class.

​I’m here to create space for you to explore, release, and reconnect.

Bree the Teacher Trainer

This is the work I deeply believe in, and I am really good at it.
​
Guiding others in becoming teachers is one of the most meaningful parts of my work.

Teacher training is about so much more than learning how to sequence a class or cue a pose. It’s about learning how to trust yourself, find your voice, and hold space in a way that is grounded, intentional, and real.

I’ve had the honor of leading and co-leading multiple yoga teacher trainings, supporting students through a process that is both deeply personal and profoundly transformative.

Watching that shift—when someone begins to believe in themselves and step into their role as a teacher—is something I never take for granted.

My approach to training blends structure and intuition. I care deeply about strong foundations—functional movement, clear cueing, and thoughtful sequencing—but just as much about presence, language, and the energy you bring into the room.
​
You don’t have to become someone else to be a great teacher.
You learn how to become more fully yourself.

If you feel called to deepen your practice or step into teaching,
I’d love to support you on that path.

Ponder Yoga was created as a space for
​ rest, reflection &  renewal.

Your place to pause, tune in &
come back to yourself.

Whether you’re stepping onto the mat for the first time or deepening an existing practice, there is space for you here.
My intention is simple:
To help you feel more connected, more grounded, and more at home in yourself.
