Erica is an Oak Island native, who has been with her yoga mat for
over 12 years as a humble student and 10 years as an even more humble teacher. After spending the past 7 years as an international traveling yoga teacher, she has returned to her hometown
for a period of deep integration.
Inspired by all her widespread teachers and the potent wisdom
of nature, her intuitive style of facilitating blossoms with
vibrant creativity and whimsical joy.
She fiercely believes ANYONE can enjoy the practice of yoga on the mat because yoga is for ALL people and ALL bodies. She speaks from the heart and teaches through the lens of trauma awareness in hopes of inspiring everyone to feel seen, cared for, and welcome, beginners to yoga and experienced practitioners alike. By blending her deep knowledge of accessible yoga with creative sequencing, non violent communication, and mindfulness, her classes come alive with tangible inclusivity and compassion to honor each student, no matter where they are in their individual yoga and life journey.

ryt 200
I discovered yoga after my second son, but really fell in love with it after my third, as it slowly became my outlet for myself. I started with a goal to get on my mat everyday for five minutes. That time quickly grew, and six years later I became a Registered Yoga Teacher.
My focus for flows tends to lean toward combining strength with mobility work in a dynamic, vinyasa style class. Expect to move, sweat + breathe. I guide you through different modifications for many poses, as well as ways to enhance your practice
