Rachel Young ~ Yoga Instructor

Born and raised in Florida, Rachel is a spirit of the sea. Rachel aims to spread positivity and light through a unique mix of yogic philosophy, strategic communication and humbled philanthropy. A spirited explorer and lover of nature, she has a service heart and is firm in her commitment to unity, wholeness, peace — yet is never satisfied with the status quo. At a young age, Rachel learned to thrive by embracing self-awareness and purpose, particularly in regards to education, travel and writing. An interest in yoga sparked after graduating college and realizing that life was meant to be more than a lukewarm cycle of work and play, but something vivacious and inspired. What started off as curiosity is now a way of life, as Rachel’s beliefs often encourage a holistic lifestyle that is both authentic and by-design, yet receptive to universal guidance. To Rachel, yoga was not just about moving the body but an art form that held the power to unlock a person’s true potential; the idea that an authentic, passion-filled life can come from tuning one’s attend inward — an idea that proved true time and time again, especially after bringing the practices of yoga and pranayama to several improvised Florida neighborhoods through community english programs. Mother nature’s divine chaos continues to be Rachel’s biggest teacher, and her biggest indulgences are hiking in the mountains, playing in the ocean and living a cruelty-free, vegan lifestyle.  She is skilled at bringing groups of people together, fostering harmony, and encouraging individuals to recognize their unique talents.
