After reconstructive knee surgery in 2014, I began taking yoga classes to aid in my recovery. I quickly found yoga as a way to not only rebuild my strength, but also alleviate stress and anxiety. Shortly after, I became a certified yoga teacher and personal trainer, and have spent the last 5 years taking trainings & courses from amazing teachers around the world to understand the body even more.
I have found that yoga & fitness can be very meditative when combined with awareness & understanding of the body. Combining my training in transcendental meditation, anatomy, and fitness, my teaching style is. In this blog post, I am going to go over a handful of yoga poses that you can safely do (or do with modifications) post-knee surgery.

Yoga & Fitness
Report
Luckily, Groupon was offering a special at a nearby hot yoga studio, and I decided to give it another chance. It was challenging, I wasn't good at it, but it kept me coming back. Fast forward a few years after exploring several yoga styles, and I eventually became a certified teacher. Its been 7+ years after my first yoga class, and I love the practice more every time I step on my mat.
