Our Story

The inception of Bend Over Backwards Yoga arose from a simple yet profound realization during my own healing journey. Years back, as I navigated through life’s various challenges—both physical and emotional—I found solace on my mat. It wasn’t just about the poses; it was about discovering a calm center amidst chaos. Inspired by my experience, I wanted to create a space where others could find that sense of peace. The studio evolved into a haven for all who enter, emphasizing the importance of community and personalization in the practice. Each time I see a student leave class with a brighter smile or newfound confidence, it reaffirms my belief in the transformative power of yoga. That shared journey of exploration, vulnerability, and joy fuels my passion and keeps me committed to ensuring that Bend Over Backwards Yoga remains a supportive hub for everyone in Nanaimo.
