Justyn O'Neill

Richfield,MN

Summary

I am a 500hr E-RYT Yoga Alliance accredited yoga professional with over 15 years of teaching experience. I have extensive experience running a yoga school, that specializes in yoga philosophy and advanced education for teachers.

My mission as a teacher is to create a pathway for students to broaden their perspective, to see their own worth, remember the truth of who they are and love themselves in a bigger way. My intention is to offer the teachings of yoga in a sacred way, upholding the reverence to the roots of the tradition.

I guide in a way that honors the feminine aspect of the practice. Weaving in wisdom from Yogini/Goddess traditions, giving the practitioner an opportunity to connect with their own inner power and inherent wisdom.

I am an ideal instructor for studios that want to offer a greater depth of knowledge in their training programs, or businesses that want to offer mindfulness, meditation or sound healing to their employees.
