After performing professionally as a modern dancer for over 20 years, Tina (she/her) began her training with Cyndi Lee at OM Yoga and practiced at Laughing Lotus as well as with many other teachers. She received her 200 hour certification at Brooklyn Yoga School and while pregnant, received her prenatal certification from Beth Donnelly Caban and Lara Thompson Kohn at Integral Yoga. Later, she received her postpartum certification from Beth and Lara at Integral Yoga as well, which led her to become a certified postpartum doula and breastfeeding counselor. She also facilitates the New Mothers Support Group at Bend + Bloom and is a New Parent Educator -in- training.
Her motivation for teaching prenatal and postpartum yoga is to provide support to help mothers develop their physical strength, their breathing practice, as well as a sense of well-being while providing a space to come together as a community. Tina supports mothers in order to enrich their lives; offering tools for better health, self-awareness and to gain confidence in their bodies, as well as themselves as parents, during the perinatal time. www.motherher.com
