Dawn is a passionate wellness enthusiast with a zest for embracing new opportunities and adventures! She is happily married and shares her home with two cats who rule the roost. Dawn’s yoga journey began in 2006 with her first class in Los Angeles, but it wasn’t until 2019 that she began practicing regularly. Having grown up as a gymnast and dancer, flipping and twisting were second nature to her. This foundation led her to discover aerial yoga, and she was immediately captivated after her first class. A lover of travel, Dawn enjoys exploring our national parks, hiking scenic trails, golfing, and spending quality time with family and friends. My teaching style is: Welcoming and fun! I hope to bring students to their own “edge” in a safe, uplifting, and comfortable environment. My favorite yoga pose is: Working towards Grasshopper. I love trying new and challenging arm balances! Yoga has helped me overcome: Self confidence issues while striving for unattainable perfection. Yoga has shown me that my hiccups along the way will build strength, humility, and respect. I love my strong arms because: They help me reach new heights! My favorite deity or god/goddess is: Currently, I am resonating with the Goddess Durga to fight anger, guilt, blame, shame, greed, etc. Hopefully she will help me channel my inner warrior to combat these traits. You must try this healthy snack: Blend of Greek yogurt, flax milk, hemp seeds, wheat germ, chia seeds, and protein powder topped with fresh fruit. My favorite Sanskrit word or phrase is: Arunoday, as it is the translation of my name. My advice for beginning yogis is: This is YOUR journey! Carve out your own path at your own pace and try not to compare your progress against others. Slow and steady wins the race. I’m most grateful for: My husband and my health. The most exotic place I’ve practiced yoga is: Banff, Alberta. My first aerial class! If I could practice yoga with anyone it would be: My Grandma – she would have loved it and would have laughed the entire time. I’m eager and excited to take my yoga to the next level because: I want to grow as a teacher, expand my knowledge base, and help others. My heroes are: Those who inspire me to be a better version of myself, whether they are public figures or people I encounter in my personal life. My one wish for the world is: Harmony
