When she ran into a friend of hers who discussedshe was opening Yoga Nation she decided to try it out. After two weeks of practicing power flowshe noticed a huge change in the amount of strength, mobility and has not looked back. Notonly were the physical benefits noticeable but the way she was able to begin interacting at bothwork and in her personal life became life changing.
