Hi, I’m Zoel! (But the kids all call me Miss Zoe ! )
For most of my life, I have been a passionate educator and movement instructor. I started teaching when I was just 16 years old, and even ran my own successful movement studio for several years, specializing in children’s dance classes and adult fitness. Teaching has always been the heart and soul of my life’s work!
My journey into yoga began when I attended my first class and completely fell in love with the practice. Seeking to add a powerful new dimension to my teaching background, I completed my 200-Hour Yoga Teacher Training and instantly found my calling by combining my decades of dance instruction with the magic of children’s yoga.
As a certified Kidding Around Yoga (KAY) teacher, I am deeply passionate about making mindfulness fun, active, and accessible. I have seen firsthand how combining yoga with structured breath-work and playful mindfulness can be completely transformational for children. I work with children of all unique challenges and abilities, ensuring every child feels welcome, supported, and celebrated on their mat.
To give kids a well-rounded and joyful experience, I love weaving my specialization in youth dance styles—including Ballet, and Jazz—directly into my youth programming!
Outside of the kids’ yoga mat, I am also a certified fitness trainer specializing in active aging, proudly teaching joyful Chair Yoga, Chair Dance, and Zumba Gold to seniors in local community spaces.
