During college, she fell in love with running, but the toll it took on her body, along with past gymnastics injuries, ultimately led her to yoga.

In 2015, she was in a serious bike crash that resulted in her no longer being able to train for long distance races. In the aftermath, she rediscovered yoga.

From an early age, Alan (RYT200) was interested in physical fitness and well-being. At UT Knoxville, he started using the gym where he would lift weights and attended his first yoga classes. After graduation in 2012, Alan moved to Buenos Aires, Argentina in where he worked in the nightlife and hospitality industries until he began his masters degree. In B.A. he began taking Ashtanga classes at the local gyms in his neighborhood Palermo and while visiting family back in Collierville at Lifetime Fitness (hint: many of those classes were Amy Morse). Upon repatriating back to the United States in 2017, Alan found an old college friend, Kelsey, teaching Ashtanga at Delta Groove in Overton Square. He began coming to the class every week because of the challenging work and the inspiring people he was meeting along the way. The rigor of the practice and the steady progression to opening and strengthening the body inspired him to do his yoga teacher training with Dwi Pada in the fall of 2020. It had always been a dream of his to help bring people into the practice and help people gain the benefits of asana, but the pandemic inspired him to follow his dream because you never know what life will throw at you. Yoga has shown Alan that the union of mind, body and spirit means so much more than pretty poses and Instagramable moments and he is excited to share in this journey with you.

In 2023, Becky earned her graduate degree from the University of Memphis in Clinical Mental Health Counseling.

Davia’s yoga journey began in 2002 when she took her first yoga class at the Ann Arbor School of Yoga in Ann Arbor, Michigan. Her original teacher, Laurie Blakeney, was a student of Sri B.K.S.
