Mindy Beach / Owner

Mindy teaches Yoga full time and has over 17,500 hours of instruction to her credit. She has been a student and teacher for over 15 years. Her passion for the joys and wonder of Yoga began in 2006 as she was seeking ways to work through anxiety, depression and the stress of raising three young children. She was instantly drawn to the physical nature of this art form. Yoga inspired a deep and meaningful curiosity of the human anatomy. She has never stopped pursuing a broad knowledge of Yoga and its impact on the body, learning the needs and goals of each of her students and designing the perfect practice to achieve their goals. The physical portion of her practice brought her to the deeper purpose of Yoga, the nurturing of spirit and the mind-body connection. She incorporates all of these components into her teaching to help guide each of her students to a place of peace and love.

With the encouragement of her first teacher, Peg Mulqueen, Mindy earned her 200hr certification with a strict focus on Baptiste Power Yoga. She has completed her 300hr advanced studies with Faith Hunter, in Washington D.C. With this additional training Mindy has discovered a deeper sense of the spiritual components of Yoga. Mindy is committed to become an instructor of Kundalini Yoga as taught by Yogi Bhajan. She is currently registered for the 2019 Immersion, New Mexico- Aquarian Teacher Training Level 1- Foundations.

She adds the Kundalini dynamic breathing techniques, meditation and chanting of mantras in most of her classes.

Her classes are rich in humor, joy and moving music. The energy emanating from her own practice serves to guide others to their own love affair with Yoga. She is adept at providing the path of self-discovery for each of her students. Whether it’s your first class or one-hundredth you will inevitably feel at ease.

In the last eleven years Mindy has opened two wonderful studios, presented or taught at many corporate, wellness events throughout the DC metro area, as well as designing private practices for hundreds of individual practitioners. She collaborates with local chiropractors, physical therapist and other alternative health care professionals to add the healing powers of Yoga to their disciplines.

Mindy has hand-picked her teachers for their kindness, depth of practice and passion for teaching. Each of them brings a special addition to this warm and welcoming studio. She has been blessed to bear witness to the powerful effects that Yoga has had on her students and their pursuit of physical, mental and spiritual health. She has devoted her practice to continue to spread the power of Yoga’s gifts.
