Why do you love teaching at Mantra?
“Teaching at Mantra is more than just leading a class – it’s about creating an experience that challenges, uplifts, and empowers. I love seeing clients grow stronger, not just physically but mentally, as they push past their limits and discover what they’re truly capable of. I love the studio energy and the community!”
Favorite Pre/Post-Class Ritual:
“Grounding myself on the machine before class has become a ritual I love. Whether it’s settling into child’s pose or lying on my back with my eyes closed, I take a moment to check in with myself – physically, mentally, and emotionally. It’s my way of resetting and tuning into the space around me.”
Best advice for new clients:
“Mantra isn’t just another fitness studio – it’s a sanctuary for movement, growth, and connection. Give yourself permission to be a beginner. Strength isn’t built in a day, but commitment and consistency will transform you from the inside out. Trust the process!”
