Yoga has always been a light in Erin Kras' life. Full of self-expression, possibility and opportunities for growth, Erin was drawn to yoga at the young age of 16.

Erin was naturally called to deepen her practice and completed her 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training at Verge Yoga Center in 2015. In 2016, Erin went on to complete an 8-Week Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction Course at Thomas Jefferson University, using meditation to heal her own anxiety and recover from a running injury.

Erin's goal is to create a safe, non-judgmental space for self exploration.

Andrea Cooper first stepped on her mat in 2003, and as a long time fitness enthusiast the positive impact on her body, mind, and soul was immediate.

She received her 200 hr. certification in 2006 from Verge and Empowered Yoga Centers. She is currently working towards her 500 hr. training with the Pranakriya School of Yoga Healing Arts.

Inspired by the profound benefits of moving mindfully, Mary Ruth began cultivating a more in-depth sense of presence and mind-body connection through her personal practice of meditation.  Her desire to enrich her own practice and help others cultivate the same mindful awareness within themselves led her to study Mindfulness Meditation under the guidance of Tara Brach and Jack Kornfield.  She has completed the Power of Presence and received her certificate from the Mindfulness Meditation Teaching Certification Program. Mary Ruth is also recognized by and is a member of the International Mindfulness Teaching Association (CMT-P).  Currently she is working toward completing her certification in applied Neuroscience and Brain Health.
