Get to Know Miss Bridget
Bridget graduated from Saint Mary’s College in Notre Dame, Indiana where she earned a B.A. in Elementary Education. She moved home to teach in a local preschool, and has taught almost every grade level from preschool up to fifth grade. Bridget got married and had two beautiful children, pausing her career in education. This is when Bridget’s passion for yoga & mindfulness began to blossom. As her children grew, she began her 200 hour Teacher Training with Melissa Sebes of the Empower Yoga Teacher Training Program at PurYoga. Bridget was blessed with the opportunity to teach right away.
Soon after, Bridget wanted to share yoga with her own children in an age-appropriate and safe way. She trained with ChildLight Education, where she completed 95+ hours in Children’s Yoga & Mindfulness trainings and became a Registered Children’s Yoga Teacher. Bridget has completed additional training under Lisa Flynn through Yoga 4 Classrooms.
Bridget is passionate about sharing yoga and mindfulness with people throughout all stages of life and has trained with Megan Morris through ChildLight Education Company to become a prenatal and gentle yoga teacher.
Yoga is an ageless, all-abilities practice. Bridget aims to provide opportunities for all who want to practice yoga, to create and customize a class for them making it possible to practice safely and effectively!
She currently teaches weekly yoga classes at PurYoga in addition to monthly prenatal and children’s workshops. She travels throughout the Mahoning & Trumbull counties teaching after school yoga to children in Kindergarten up to sixth grade, as well as a Stories & Stretch class in various preschools. She shares many of these classes at the Butler Institute of American Art and at the East Palestine Resiliency Center.
