Angela has been practicing yoga for the last seven years and took her first several classes at Bird Rock Yoga and Prana Yoga Center. She instantly fell in love with yoga and received her 200-hour Yoga Alliance teacher training certification in 2007 and has been teaching ever since.

A La Jolla native, Angela now lives in Ocean Beach and currently teaches at Namaste Yoga Center and Prana. Her teaching style includes Vinyasa Flow, intro to Yoga, and gentle hatha with a strong emphasis on breath work and focus. Angela is grateful to her teachers that have inspired her in her own Yogic journey and from whom she continues to learn and practice with, among them Gerhard Gessner, Amanda McCarroll, Elka Hauck Haeckel and Teresa Austin. 

Angela is currently a student studying Spanish at Cal State San Marcos where she will be graduating in spring 2010 and is applying to a speech pathology program at SDSU. She would ultimately like to combine her studies with her passion for yoga. Her yoga practice has also led her to the Brazilian martial art form of Capoeira, which combines fluid movements and acrobatic sequences and she trains with the group Capoeira Brasil.
