Life Changed by Yoga
Orphaned at the age of six, Yola grew up in England's foster care system that left her struggling and devoid of self esteem. Then she discovered Yoga and her life was transformed. Through discipline and a desire for balance, she gravitated toward a daily Yoga practice, enriching her life with confidence and meaning. With Yoga as her foundation she went on to create one of NYC's most successful Yoga studios, Some Like It Hot Yoga - a communal place where Yola can share her love of Yoga and people can practice safely while finding their own balance in life.
Yola received her certification at the Bikram College of India in California where she earned the "Flower Petal Blooming Award" for her transformation and dedication to the practice. She is registered at the 500 hour professional level with the Yoga Alliance for Vinyasa and Bikram.
Yola loves to mentor fledgling Yoga teachers and conducts a teacher certification at the studio which is registered as a Yoga Alliance 200 hour level Yoga Teacher Certification affiliate. Years of teaching experience led her to develop YolaYoga, a unique and empowering approach to Yoga (see Yoga Styles for a full description).
