LANDIS
Landis' passion is for people to understand that yoga is for every body. She desires to create a safe space where people feel empowered to explore how the postures truly feel in their body as they move with their breath, regardless of where they are in their yoga journey. Landis enjoys practicing and teaching Vinyassa, Slow Flow, Gentle Yoga and Meditation. She encourages students to come to their mat just as they are.

She enjoys “playing” and exploring in her practice to see how postures can be made more accessible to herself and her students.
