Patricia

Patricia began practicing yoga in 2003 as a means to keep fit and stay trim but it is the unexpected mental, emotional and spiritual benefits that came along with the practice that got her hooked. Corporate mindset and life then prevented her from a regular practice; but she always returns to the mat whenever she felt overwhelmed by the rigors of life or just to center herself.

In 2010, after leaving a highly successful corporate position and after resting for 6 months from 14 years corporate burnout; Patricia decided to challenge herself with a form of yoga that she found the most challenging – Hot Yoga…..and what’s hotter than Hot Yoga? The Original Hot Yoga — Bikram Yoga of course!

At the end of her 2nd Bikram Yoga class, there was no looking back. After a month of regular practice, Patricia was able to quit her almost 20 years smoking habit with no side effects or mood swings and have not touch any cigarette since then. And after 18 months of regular practice, Patricia embarked on a three-month Bikram Yoga certification course in Los Angeles in Spring of 2012 under the founder Bikram Choudhury (Yoga College of India), Prof. (Dr.) P.S. Das-Yoga therapy, Dr Jim Preddy & Jon Burras-Anatomy.
