Howdy! Brittney here. I am a native Texan, living in The Netherlands (Breda to be exact)!

Having spent over 7 years in the corporate world, I know how easy it is to get caught up in the day-to-day, work yourself into the ground, and put off taking care of your body and mind.  After years of “mistreatment,” the aches and pains begin to surface. Do not fear, there is hope…

If you start working at it now, you can dramatically improve your quality of life… at any age!

I was first introduced to yoga when I was experiencing extreme back and shoulder discomfort caused by long hours of sitting at a desk. After a few years of bouncing between different styles of yoga, I finally found a style that left me feeling strong, mobile, and pain-free!

I teach a style inspired by Yoga Better; a style that is safe and effective for ALL ages and skill levels. Yoga Better teachers have dramatically improved the quality of life of our students, especially seniors in our Texas community, and I can’t wait to share this style with my students in The Netherlands. The style is based on anatomy, mechanics, and functional movement, and classes are a mix of balance, strengthening, stretching, and relaxation.

My love for movement started at 14 months when I was caught boogie-ing down on the bar at Señor Frogs in Mazatlan, Mexico. During my early years, I dabbled in swimming, soccer, and motocross, but ultimately, it was dancing that stole my heart. I continued dancing throughout high school: jazz, ballet, modern, drill team, and hip hop. While I am no longer on an organized dance team, I am never not moving. On the weekends, you can find me practicing yoga, riding my bike, or grooving on the dance floor.

Movement is my favorite form of meditation.

Fun facts about me:

• I met my Dutch partner while backpacking through Europe during my sabbatical

• I already had ties to The Netherlands through my Houston-based yoga teacher, Robert Boustany

• I also work at Momoyoga, the Dutch software company I use to run my business
