The Fat Yogi Show

Howdy, I'm Bree! I’m a registered yoga teacher (200RYT, PRYT) specializing in gentle, restorative, and prenatal yoga. I'm the founder of Good Yoga, a body positive virtual yoga studio obsessed with providing accessible yoga to everyone who walks through our digital doors, regardless of age, race, sexuality, gender identity, fitness level, or body size. I have had a personal practice for 10 years on and off, but I fell deeply in love with yoga while recovering from PTSD stemming from childhood sexual abuse and infertility. I am so grateful for the delight that I have learned to take in my body since devoting myself to my practice, and I can't wait to show other people how to take delight in their bodies as well.
