Monday 11/16 ☆@6pm Energetic Flow *weekly

A curious, creative dreamer, and a lifelong student, Emily loves sharing all the good things she can with anyone and everyone. Some days that’s yoga, other days cooking, flowers, or a compassionate ear to listen.

As a yoga teacher, Emily's focus is creating welcoming and inclusive spaces, and helping students learn how to make yoga a lifelong practice. The fabric of her classes have the philosophies of yoga woven in and movement options are offered in a way that honors each person's unique lived experience. Her yoga specialties are restorative and adaptive/accessible.

During the week she gets to be in a kitchen cooking, while teaching and talking about food with her wonderful volunteers. They run the gamut of older wise adults with lots of experience, kindness, and patience, to the young and new to adulthood who are energized, open, and eager for life and all its possibilities. All with a common goal to reduce food waste and provide hunger relief by creating a variety of delicious and nutritious offerings for anyone in need.

Emily currently resides in Berwick. Maine with her lovely family and sweet cats Guy, Charlie, and Luna. She loves simple living, slow days, and conversation. If you spend enough time with her she’ll probably try to feed you, flower you, or cover you with a blanket.

She hopes we all can feel empowered and at peace, compassion and wisdom, and remember that we’re all just trying to figure this life thing out.

You can find her on the schedule for Saturdays Morning Light Flow weekly, and monthly Restorative, adaptive and other various workshops!

Wendy started her fitness journey back in the 90’s and fell in love with how movement of the body helped her to connect to her mind and soul, Along the way, Wendy became a certified personal Trainer and fitness instructor, and even ended up owning her own studio for a few years. It was while owning her own studio that she found yoga a much needed respite from the more rigorous forms of exercise she was doing. Yoga was what made her start to realize that it wasn’t about how much you can do, but the quality of it, and that Yoga is a very personal journey for everyone. While feeling a bit overwhelmed by some physical pain issues, Wendy started to practice yoga regularly and realized that her pain also came from some life traumas that she had not dealt with. Through yoga she started to heal not only physically, but mentally and spiritually as well. Wendy decided that she wanted to share what had helped her to heal with others. Wendy started with a Restorative Yoga and Yoga Nidra workshop. From there she realized that she wanted to learn more. She decided at the age of 60 to do a 200 hour Vinyasa based yoga training. Wendy also did a 50 hour Yin Yoga training with Josh Summers at the beginning of her 200 hour training and also holds her Reiki II certification. Wendy hopes to incorporate yoga into her love of teaching fitness to help people heal from anything in their life that might hold them back from living a full life. Wendy is the proud mom of two grown women and also the proud Maimeo of her grandchildren Jasper Juna and Jepsen. Wendy loves the ocean, and cannot picture ever living anywhere that it isn’t close to it choosing to reside in South Berwick.

Amanda has been practicing yoga for half her life. Her first job was at the front desk at a gym in Salem, MA where her mom worked as the Fitness Director. With a free employee membership, but not being drawn to aerobics or working out in a gym, Amanda found a spot in the back of her first ever yoga class on a weeknight after school. It was there in that packed class in the 2nd floor dark candlelit studio that she became hooked. She still remembers driving home crying and googling “savasana” to try and make some sense of what she had experienced. Not only did yoga allow her to feel connected to her body in a way she never had before, but it allowed her to find peace within her chaotic teenage mind. Amanda's aunt, a 200 hour Yoga Teacher, began bringing her along to attend Chakra Workshops and yoga events in packed studios in Boston where Amanda was mesmerized and intrigued by the wide array of benefits that yoga offered the mind, body, & spirit. Although she did not yet know that over one decade later she would fulfill her life’s purpose by becoming a Yoga Teacher, she did know that she would be a student for life.

Now, a 200 Hour Yoga Teacher, Licensed Massage Therapist, and Reiki II Practitioner, Amanda recognizes the way that the body and mind are so intricately intertwined. Amanda teaches in an explorative way rather than routine focused. She weaves theory, humor, and endless curiosity into her teaching to create a space that is inclusive and joyful. Advocating for a "choose-your-own adventure" style of yoga, you can expect to move intuitively as Amanda stresses the importance of meeting yourself exactly where you are at. Amanda is known for her creative sequences, unique movements, carefully curated playlists, and little gems of yoga readings, poems, and metaphors to further enhance each class experience. 

You can find her on the schedule weekly on Wednesdays for 9am Free Flow Yoga and 10:15 Restorative Yin~

Meet Abby, a yoga instructor, business owner, and dog mom, born and raised in Maine. Abby became a certified yoga instructor in 2019, completing her 200 hour yoga teacher training in Falmouth, Maine. She graduated from the University of Southern Maine in 2022, earning a bachelor's degree in Health Sciences, focusing on biology and holistic health. Her dedication to yoga began at a small hot yoga studio in Portsmouth, NH, where she practiced for more than 700+ hours over the course of a few years. It was in the first few years of practicing that her life began to truly change. Yoga taught her how to show up for herself and how just simply showing up on the mat everyday instills such a strong relationship with oneself. Yoga has given her purpose, connection, peace, and a life that's full of all the sweet stuff. Yoga has helped Abby heal from her past experiences, and it continues to be a grounding and guiding force for her connection to her life and the world around her. Yoga taught Abby how good it feels to be a good person. Abby expresses just how grateful she is for yoga because she lived so much of her life in the dark, and it's yoga that brought her life into the light. She says that everyday teaching yoga is an amazing day and she truly feels grateful to be able to do what she loves and give back to the world in such an amazing way. Abby's heart and soul is in the practice of yoga and she just hopes that she is able to inspire others in her own teachings the way that her yoga teachers have inspired her. She teaches a lot of flow based classes and loves sequencing very energizing and strengthening yoga classes. Abby is a trauma-informed yoga teacher and always emphasizes in her classes that the most important thing you can do is to honor your body and accept it for exactly as it is. If you would like to come to her class and just lay on the mat and breathe and take space for yourself and what you need in that moment, you are so welcome to do that. Her classes are a safe space for everyone. She is there for guidance and instruction if you wish to follow her, but you are the star of the show and so what you choose to do is what is best for you, and she encourages that. In 2024, Abby really took a leap of faith, driven by passion and a deep belief in herself and the practice of yoga, and went full-time as an instructor. She now runs a trauma-informed yoga program at a therapeutic treatment facility in New Hampshire for adolescents. She opened her very own studio in Springvale, Maine, called June Yoga Studio where she teaches all kinds of styles of yoga ranging from Power Yoga Flow to Mommy and Me Yoga to everything in between. The name of her studio is inspired by her middle name and the woman in her family who also share the name June. Abby teaches at Rooted In Flow weekly on Tuesdays! She teaches her speciality Power Yoga Flow where she guides you through a very energizing and strengthening practice that will leave you feeling confident, strong, and at peace. She incorporates themes, intentions, mantras, and yoga philosophy all throughout her classes, ensuring deep connection and meaning with every single breath. One of Abby's favorite quotes: 

"There is no hierarchy in healing." - Nikki Myers 

She believes that anyday spent on the mat is a wonderful one. A day spent studying the mind, the body, the heart, and the breath, is the greatest gift one can give to themselves. So give yourself the gift of yoga, and come join Abby for a transformative and rejuvenating practice!

Over a decade later and with a plethora of training under her belt, Kate seeks to help her students find joy in their practices, while maintaining a mindful approach to breath and movement. With additional certifications in paddle board and aerial yoga, she believes yoga is the perfect place to embrace our creativity, observe our inner strength, and explore deeper corners of ourselves.

Lee aims to incorporate both yin and yang elements into his classes, and to facilitate a joyful and rewarding practice for all levels. He received his 200 RYT from Yoga East (Kittery, ME) in 2025 under the instruction of Kimberly Dahlmann.
