Linda has been practicing yoga for seven years. She is a Registered Yoga Teacher through the Yoga Alliance. Before her love for yoga began, she alternated running with weight training to stay in shape. As she practiced yoga more frequently, she realized that her need to train with weights no longer existed. She was building core, arm and leg strength while lengthening her muscles.
