Meredith Belger is a passionate yoga teacher who loves sharing the joy of yoga with others. She was always active but her life changed in 2017 when she tried yoga for the first time. “I fell in love with it,” she says.” Eventually, I became an RYT so I could share the gift of yoga with others.” Fitness has changed her life since then. “It gives me an opportunity to climb out of my head and escape anything stressful around me,” Meredith explains. “It helps me connect my mind and body and give myself a place of solace.” As a yoga teacher, Meredith's favorite thing about her job is interacting with her students and leading them through practice. She finds it incredibly fulfilling to watch her students get up at the end of class with blissful looks on their faces. But she knows it’s not easy for everyone to start something new. “One of the most common problems people face when entering the fitness world is the self-defeating thought of, “I can’t do that,” says Meredith. “I help them by going slowly and breaking down the movements for them, providing cues along the way,” ends Meredith.
