“My name is Alyssa Lee Garza. I am a certified 200 hour Yoga Instructor. I teach online and locally at my town's Community Center. I started my Yoga Journey in search of self- healing and Yoga has transformed my life in every aspect. I love sharing the tools of Yoga that I've learned with friends, family, and strangers alike. I'm also a homeschooling mom, a bonus mom, a wife, a homemaker, a licensed cosmetologist, an artist, and a lover of Earth, Nature, Dreams, and the Cosmos. My most favorite thing to do is spend time with my family. We love being outside, swimming, checking out museums and events, eating, cooking, doing karaoke, exploring, and traveling together. My personal favorite pasttimes include: writing, painting, reading, practicing, researching, dreaming and LEARNING. I love to follow my intuition, listen to my dreams, dream huge, set big goals and encourage others to do the same. I believe the best way to learn is to teach and I'm ecstatic and humbled to be learning and teaching Asana and Anatomy alongside our YTT200 class! I am here, I am nature, I am loving, I am loved! And I can't wait to hear YOUR story!"
