Hi I'm Andrea. I grew up in Portland and have lived in South Portland for over 25 years. I started practicing Yoga when I was training for a triathlon back in 2011. Chronically pulling a rib out of alignment during training, I went to a chiropractor who said, "you can do more for yourself than I can do for you, go do yoga". If you've met me, it's not surprising that once I started going to yoga, I wanted more. I took my 200 HR Teacher Training with Jacqui Bonwell in 2012/2013 and opened Scarborough Yoga in September of 2014. I've continued my studies with Josh Summers, Shiva Shakti, Robin Ivy Payton, Amy Ipolitti and more. My dream for the studio was create a community. 8 years and a pandemic later, Scarborough Yoga is a thriving yoga community. I love teaching, I love learning and I love sharing what I learn with my students. I lean toward the quieter yoga practices and teach predominantly yin yoga. I look forward to meeting you on your mat!
