Amy Ragen
Amy is a mother of a daughter and two sons. Living all of her life in La Jolla, she has always had a passion for fitness, but found her true love with yoga. She was a personal trainer in her 20’s, teaching floor mat Pilates and aerobics to seniors. Ten years ago she discovered Bikram Yoga, and then graduated to Ashtanga and Vinyasa yoga. Maintaining her practice during all three pregnancies greatly aided her labor, delivery and recovery.
Recently, she has wanted to find a way to combine her two passions: children and yoga. She found that in teaching yoga to kids.
Amy has been teaching yoga at both at her daughter’s pre-school and in her at-home yoga studio. She hopes to encourage creativity, self -discipline and self -awareness. Using enlightening stories, music, in depth discussions and asanas, she puts together a fun and safe environment for the kids. "To watch these kids grow into a deeper understanding of their true selves and how we are all connected has been most rewarding."
Amy has been certified to teach through "It’s Yoga Kids" out of San Francisco.
