Amanda Serene Dozal

“In 1997 at the age of 18, I began diving deeper into spiritual and occult practices during my pregnancy. Without ever stepping into a yoga room I knew it was my calling to serve. My classes and teachings reflect a love, devotion & passion to the ancient science and art of yoga. I am continually finding inspiration from this mundane life , the mystery of nature,  my teachers, my  studentship, the lineages and practices that are deep in my heart. I am honored to share this path with you all. My deepest guru gratitude to my son Bear. You have shown me unimaginable beauty. OM tat sat om”
