Blaine Mallory
Phoenixville,PA
Summary
My name is Blaine Mallory. I am a single mother to my son Archie, he is currently four and a half years old and the sunshine to each of my days. From a young age I have always had a passion to help others particularly those with special needs and people of the geriatric community. I was born in Bryn Mawr, PA and raised in Paoli PA. Currently I am residing with my son and both of my parents in Phoenixville. When I am not with my son exploring the world I enjoy doing Yoga as well as swimming. My love for Yoga emerged shortly after losing my twin sister at the young age of 24 to Cervical Cancer, the mediation and breathing skills have helped me through some of the most challenging times in my life. Along with practicing Yoga I also have my certification in Yoga for students from ages 2-21.
