Meet Dr. Trish
As a US licensed doctor of Physical Therapy (known as a physiotherapist in Europe) and a former anatomy professor, I spent years helping people move better. When I discovered yoga, I realized teachers needed what I had - deep anatomical knowledge combined with the confidence to share it clearly.
I've experienced yoga across multiple countries, and I've seen the same pattern: amazing teachers struggling with uncertainty, spending hours planning classes, and feeling unprepared when students asked questions. That's why I created my systematic approach and founded the Yoga Anatomy School.
I combine my medical background with empowering teaching methods to train teachers all over the world to teach great yoga classes from their heart.
