While studying as a Dance major in undergraduate, Dawn found her first yoga class and was immediately enthralled. It was a perfect way to balance her mind, body and spirit from grueling rehearsals, study and stress. She found her physical and mental release and inner peace for what felt like for the very first time. It became a personal practice for the next 15 years. Dawn went on to complete her undergraduate in Dance before going on for her Masters in Dance Movement Therapy and become Board Certified, as well as, a Professional and National Counselor. She continued to explore many styles of yoga and has been drawn to Hatha and Flow specifically. 4 years ago she became certified in children’s yoga in Chicago and then completed her adult training here in Pittsburgh. Dawn is the director of our “Movement Adventures: Yoga and Creative Movement Fusion” here at the studio while simultaneously running a private practice as a Dance Movement Therapist and adjunct in Creativity at Seton Hill University.
Dawn has a lifelong passion with the mind/body/spirit connection and the power of yoga to bring wholeness, healing, and prevention to all individuals. She is drawn to the yogic philosophy and attempts to live her life accordingly. She looks forward to growing as a teacher and a student of yoga for many decades to come!
