Yoga Co, Santa Monica Yoga, Power Yoga Studio

Kelsey Olderhaw

Quite frankly, yoga is my Zanax.:)

It has been the only perfect cure I have found for anxiety and stress. It has truly saved my (quality of) life. From the minute I tried and fell in love with yoga, (much needed after a personal tragedy had all but done me in;) I have been an avid practitioner. I have been amazed by, and studied with many incredible instructors such as Vinnie Marino, Heath House, Bryan Kest, Kathryn Budig, Annie Carpenter, and most of all, my favorite, Tamal Dodge.

After struggling for years to support myself and my children through acting, I finally decided there HAD to be a much better way to make a living. (Wish I’d seen the light much earlier). All the above factors gelled into an obvious solution. I got Yoga-Alliance certified with Tamal through his teacher-training (which we now hold at YogaCo:)) and put all my energy into teaching.

Other than my family, the most influential “loves” of my life have been music, exercise, and (obviously:) air, so I use a combination of all three in my teaching, in an endeavor to impart (even a fraction of) the peace of mind yoga has brought me to every person whom I am honored enough to be able to teach. Whether it’s a ‘good day’ or ‘bad’…come on down to our studio, and hang with me for a little while. You’ll listen to some killer music during a sweaty Poweryoga style Vinyasa flow...and just breathe …I promise you’ll leave feeling better!

And, as always (for all of you who get sick of our constant but necessary yogic-posts)...For continuous updates on classes etc, feel free to visit me at the ubiqitous Facebook: http://facebook.com/YogaCoKels

If my class doesn't sound right for you, please give any of our other teachers a try...you will sure to find something that's the right fit at our studio. We have something for everyone!

Namaste, Kels
