Our Story YogaFaith was birthed out of a 21 day Daniel Fast in 2013.
I was fasting for a job, but God gave me a purpose instead.
Ministry can be challenging, but it’s the most rewarding journey I have been a part of. When you surrender your whole life to the Lord, giving Him ALL the broken pieces, He will put them together and use your greatest mess as your most incredible message.
It has been my greatest honor and privilege to witness so many lives being transformed for the glory of God! I am humbled to my core that He has blessed so many with the gift of YogaFaith – we get to preach His Word while sharing the gift of WHOLE WORSHIP!

Our Hearts Desire It is our desire to intimately connect people to Christ; mind, body, spirit and soul. We do this by providing a safe and nurturing environment for our students to grow not only in their yoga practice but spiritually and emotionally as well. Leadership and Discipleship are hallmarks woven into the fabric of every YogaFaith Training.
I pray that God, who gives peace, will make you completely holy. And may your spirit, soul, and body be kept healthy and faultless…..Thess. 5:23
My body is my temple and asanas are my prayers. Sri. B.K.S. Iyengar

Student reviews
YogaFaith is more than just a yoga program; it's a sanctuary for the soul. The 'Jesus First, Yoga Second' philosophy creates such a peaceful, redemptive space on the mat. It’s been a life-changing journey of healing and worship through movement and gave me a renewed connection to Christ while I practice something I love, yoga. I highly recommend to anyone looking to deepen their faith while strengthening their body. Completing my 200-hour training with YogaFaith was the best decision for my personal and professional life. The curriculum is comprehensive, well-rounded, and deeply rooted in scripture. Michelle and the team of instructors are not only skilled yogis but also devoted mentors who truly care about your growth and meet you exactly where you are, regardless of skill level. I feel fully equipped to lead others with confidence and grace.
