Hey, I’m Gina!

Founder of Heart & Grit Yoga, Not-Your-Average-Yoga-Teacher

I started teaching in 2001, kickboxing was my first class and it was then that I fell in love with "movement." While teaching was a hobby back then, I spent most of my time in research labs studying pathology and the cardiovascular, endocrinology and nervous systems. I transitioned into yoga full time when I opened my first yoga studio in 2015.

Since then, I've leveraged my education & experience in exercise science, academic research, and higher-ed teaching, along with my love for personal growth, to train over 100 yoga teachers with education based on solid science.

Early in my yoga career, I quickly noticed a gap in how yoga was taught, particularly in the areas of body safety and mechanics.

To address this, I rebranded my studio to focus on a functional, science-based approach to yoga. This shift not only elevated my teaching but also brought significant improvements to my student's health and well-being.

That’s what I want for you and your students.

I created the HEART & GRIT School of Yoga to give you the high-quality resources emerging yoga teachers so desperately need so you can improve your teaching and your students’ yoga experience.

But before you can help others heal and grow stronger, you must know how the body works.

If you’re looking to fill your classes, elevate your students, and rekindle your passion for teaching, THIS is where it all starts.

“Gina teaches you to take the traditional yoga poses and adapts them to make them functional for everyday movement.”
