April and her husband Mark moved to the Outer Banks in 2003 to raise their three children on the idyllic barrier island. Yoga has been an integral part of April’s life for 20 years. She completed her 200 RYT with Chesapeake Hot Yoga School of Yoga under the guidance of Briana Ward 500 RYT and Dr. Graham Schweig 500 RYT. She also completed her 300 RYS Barkan Method Hot Vinyassa Teacher Training-Level II/Ill under the guidance of master yoga teacher Jimmy Barkan,deepening her knowledge and expertise in the foundations of traditional Hot Yoga linage. April believes yoga is a way to connect us all through movement and breath. April is grateful to call OBXHY her home away from home, and to share her light with others. She can’t wait to see you in the heat!
