About
Erika's formal studies began in 2004 with Alan Finger and the 200hr ISHTA Yoga Teacher Training program in New York. Upon completion of this program she began teaching regularly for Elements Yoga and Wellness Centre in Darien, CT. Erika managed the studio during her 5 years with the Elements Yoga family and had the amazing opportunity to deepen her yoga studies. She completed 308hrs with Ross Rayburn and Bernadette Birney in Anusara Yoga.
In 2009 Erika arrived on Prince Edward Island where she assisted Dynamic Fitness in launching their Hot Yoga division. She was invited on as Lead Trainer with Maritime Yoga College and has been instructing aspiring yoga instructors since 2013. In 2018, for the first time, Erika ventured out on her own to develop 3eYoga: Engage, Enliven, Empower. Through this independent yoga venture she has been able to share her teachings throughout various studios across the island.
Her mission as a yoga instructor is to inspire new "a-ha" moments for the seasoned practitioner and crush any misconceptions a new yoga student might have about yoga being "boring"!
