Yonder

I found Yonder Yoga (and yoga in general) for the first time while living in Atlanta. After a lifetime of soccer, I was looking for a good way to sweat and find something that could provide some relief to my back pain.

Fast forward a few years, my wife and I moved to Athens, GA and two years after that, Yonder opened the Athens studio. I was excited to continue my practice, and while I still go for the good sweat and stretch, I have found I really enjoy the mindfulness of yoga. It’s an opportunity to shut off the outside world and focus on the present moment! Being present is tough, so I am happy my hobbies, yoga and golf, provide the chance to focus on the now. 

I am happy to be part of this community and can’t wait to see you in class.
