 Abby mtt

We’ve known Abby for years (as a student and now as a Yoga teacher) and are incredibly excited to have her as one of our newest YH teachers. 

A lover of history and culture (Abby got her degree at Columbia in history), this native New Yorker loves to study people and why they do what they do. This makes her a wonderful Yoga teacher as she observes each student to see how she can make their practice even more enjoyable.

Abby got her introduction to Yoga as a little girl when her Jamaican father took a liking to the Yogic lifestyle of meditating, asana and vegetarianism. Little did he know he was feeding the mind of a future Yoga teacher. Abby’s favorite thing about teaching Yoga is being able to share her love of physical activity along with her interest in the history of Yoga. 


You can catch this fascinating Gemini Fridays at 6:30pm as well as many classes that she’ll be subbing.
