The time to dive deep is now… Now more than ever is a time to prioritize your self care, find your why, and live intentionally.

INTRODUCING...   FALL 2022  Yoga Alliance approved 200-Hour Yoga Teacher Training 

Sometimes it's hard to listen to your deepest needs and move forward through challenging times. Maybe you're constantly fatigued by the day to day stress and anxiety, you’re left feeling a bit lost in uncertainty and looking for direction in your life,  you can't seem to unwind no matter how many hot baths you take or calming music you listen to… Maybe you DO feel grounded and at ease, you feel a calling to serve in your community, to bring light to your loved ones and those that surround you. 

YOGA IS the FORMULA LIVING LIFE! It is a tool to guide you down a path of serenity, equanimity, and self discovery. 

Some of you may not want to necessarily teach yoga. AND THAT'S OKAY! Yoga teacher training is a place to learn about yourself, to learn the tools to bring balance into your daily life. And as you implement those tools throughout your training you will notice a shift in perspective, in thoughts, in breath, in focus. And MAYBE at the end of it all, you will want to share this gift with your loved ones (but it's not a requirement ;)

EMILY VENDEMMIA

Emily Vendemmia is a yoga instructor currently living in Annapolis, Maryland. She is known for her strength, flexibility and a unique teaching approach that is both inspiring and empowering.

Emily has been a yoga devotee for over 16 years. Discovering yoga in 2005 she began practicing twice a week and quickly fell in love with the mental and physical challenge of her practice. Soon she was practicing daily (even sneaking out of work to catch class). At that point she realized that yoga had become the most important thing in her life. She enrolled in a 9-week Yoga Teacher Training in 2006. She was trained by Bikram Choudhury and Mary Jarvis. After graduation she began teaching and sharing her passion with her students.

Determined to help empower others through yoga, she opened her first studio in 2007 and has since led dozens of retreats and trainings all aimed at building up her students' and teachers' abilities in and enjoyment of yoga.

Since then she has opened and operated 7 yoga studios Starting in a small industrial building and at one point operating 5 studios at once. She realized that she wanted to focus on fundamentals and community building. This realization prompted her to leave behind her successful businesses and open a boutique fusion yoga studio, True Moon Yoga, in Annapolis, Maryland.

After years of research, self-testing, and refinement she has created multiple unique classes. Emily and her two children teach kids yoga classes together. Over the years, Emily's teaching style has grown and evolved, but the basic premise remains the same: develop hundreds of new routines to ensure that no student ever plateaus and all feel welcome and included.
