About Emily

Emily.png

Hi, I’m Emily — founder of bZen Yoga, lifelong student of movement and healing, published author, and proud guide to over 17,000 incredible souls on their wellness journeys.

​

With over 30 years of experience in yoga, fitness, and holistic wellness—and a background in studio management and program development—I’m deeply committed to creating spaces where women can move smarter, feel stronger, and reconnect with their own powerful inner wisdom.

​

My journey began not in a studio, but in the wild:
🌳 Growing up surrounded by forests and rivers, I learned early that true healing comes from listening to the natural rhythms within and around us.


That connection—to nature, to movement, to breath—still shapes everything I teach today.

I believe wellness isn't about striving for perfection—it's about honoring where you are, growing with grace, and rising into the fullest expression of yourself.

​

Through mindful yoga, soulful coaching, and compassionate support, I’m here to help you create a body and life you feel at home in—at any age, at any stage.

​

✨ Let’s walk this beautiful journey together—one breath, one stretch, one empowered step at a time.
