About

Brenda is a chondrosarcoma survivor, who has undergone an internal amputation of her femur and a total knee replacement. After 4 surgeries she searched for an activity she could do that was fun, would be safe for her femur and knee, and would help bridge the gap between physical therapy and real life. When she discovered Aerial Yoga she was hooked. Brenda has continued her education in movement science to better help her students and clients move and feel better. She has been a yoga teacher since 2017, an ACE certified personal trainer since 2019, and a Registered Yoga Detour instructor since 2020.

Testimonials

There is no other instructor like her she creates a warm, inviting and friendly mood in all her classes. I always feel I can do any challenge she puts out there  and if I can’t she has a modification for that. It truly has been amazing and inspiring to be in her classes.  It truly is an honor to be her student.

-Celina Hodges
As a "fluffier" woman, I have always been very self conscious of working out in a class environment.  Often I feel like I can't keep up or that I'm just not doing the moves correctly and feel defeated when the class is over.  From the very first time I took a class with Brenda I was absolutely astonished at her competence in working with people of all abilities.  There were advanced people and beginners as well as very physically fit and obese people in our class.  She was able to modify moves for every single person in our class, including me.  These modifications were very smoothly addressed so I didn't feel once like I was slowing everyone else down or like undo embarassing attention was being drawn to me.  Brenda incorporated a chair and/or straps to assist me in correct form so that I could follow along with the rest of the class.  We all had our moments of triumph and reached milestones we got to be proud of.  I left class feeling optimistic with a renewed faith in my own abilities and excited to push myself further to continue to improve.  I feel completely safe with her and trust her to guide me in my future fitness goals.

Coach Brenda's classes are a joy while also being very effective.  I can tell she has a strong understanding of the body's mechanics, and throughout her continuing education, she has become  even more keenly aware of positioning adjustments that the student needs to make to achieve optimum effectiveness, while also being very respectful of the experience/range of motion level of each individual student.  She has a straightforward and informative presentation and demonstration style that I find easy to follow and execute.  I am so glad I found her!
