About Brittney
With a Masters Degree in Sport & Performance Psychology and Mental Health & Behavioral Medicine, Brittney brings an unparalleled understanding of the mind body connection to all of her teachings. She artfully integrates a lens of healing and mental well-being into her classes, seasonal workshops and retreats. Her flows challenge as her words soothe and students are left with an experience that is both incredibly empowering and renewing.
During her years as a therapist, Brittney worked with individuals with significant trauma histories, anxiety, depression and other mental health struggles. It was during this time that she discovered the safe, healing, grounding gift of yoga. From this belief that yoga heals, Brittney completed 200 and 300 hour yoga trainings from Baron Baptiste and Jacqui Bonwell, along with extensive training in both Yoga for Emotional Health & Healing with Kate Graham and Trauma-Sensitive Yoga with David Emerson. She has been teaching at Boston-based studios and leading local and international retreats for the past decade.
Brittney is passionate about sharing the gifts of yoga in a way that feels accessible to every person. She loves offering a strong power flow with the invitation for every student to make the class their own. She invites students to show up to class exactly as they are and to trust that they have tremendous purpose, courage and support within. Her classes will both challenge you and hold a space for you to breathe, explore, empower and ultimately walk out of class with mind, body and heart in alignment.
Outside of the studio, Brittney has two daughters, writes, loves time in nature and is on a journey to heal from autoimmune diseases. She seeks to create a community of joy and love, and is filled with gratitude for the opportunity to do this as both teacher and student through this transformative practice.
