Kelly Dillard
Hey! I'm Kelly and I am the owner of Breathe Yoga Studio. I have been a yoga lover for over 5 years and decided it was time to turn my passion into a business! I have my RYT200 certification and plan to continue to take different styles of workshops to expand my knowledge and practice.
​
I'm originally from NJ, but NC has always felt like home to me. I've been here now for 16 years and couldn't imagine living anywhere else. I love the mountains, riding motorcycles, and basically anything outdoors.
​
Yoga has healed me in more ways than one, which has motivated me to want to share this practice with others.
Jenna Baker
I was first introduced to yoga more than 10 years ago and have had a passion for it ever since. I never considered it as a career until after showing my husband some stretches to help his injured shoulder. He told me how much better he instantly felt, and I had the realization that I could help a lot of people. So, I decided to earn my RYT200 Certification. My goal is to share the wondrous effects of yoga on the mind, body and spirit.
Jessica Harriman
Graduated from Chakra Flow University, I am a 200hr Registered Yoga Teacher, as well as a certified Reiki Master Teacher. My focus as your instructor is to challenge any limiting beliefs you may have about yourself, as well as guide you through practice that will leave you feeling confident, strong and relaxed.
​
I strongly believe that yoga is for everyone, regardless of fitness level, experience, age or body type. As someone who has lived with fibromyalgia for over a decade, I am empathetic toward pain and recognize how difficult it can be to get moving. I also know first hand of the healing that movement can bring, which is why I do what I do!
Kim Crawford
E-RYT500, has been registered with Yoga Alliance and teaching since 2009. I completed my second accredited training program in 2014 and have attended countless workshops for continuing education since. I am experienced with over 6500 teaching hours in 15 years.
​
I believe that yoga can be an integrative practice for everyone's life bringing physical, mental and spiritual benefit through mindful practice. I teach and share yoga with all ages, in studios, senior communities, outdoor local vineyards, retreats and private instruction.
Jade Kenyon
Hey Friends! Jade is my name and fun is my game. I fell in love with yoga during college in 2016. After graduation, I took the plunge and signed up for my 200YTT, graduating in October of 2020. During that time, I also received my Yin Yoga certification. It wasn’t until this point that I truly found connection in my practice and realizing that yoga is more than being able to do the physical poses (Asana); it has A LOT to do with your brain and breath being in sync. I believe that yoga is something everyone can do and learn! Whether that be Asana, or yoga of the mind.
I add a special energy to my classes, making each one fun, relatable and accessible. Not only will you learn some of my favorites in class, you’ll also learn how to take your practice out of the studio and into your own space. Believing that every person is going to have a different and beautiful practice, my goal is to welcome all and to highlight just how amazing each and every one is.
I am excited to learn and grow with the community at Breathe Yoga Studio! Can’t wait to see ya! : )
Shannah Holbrook
​I am a 500-hour level instructor with my core studios coming from Vinny & Iyengar traditions/certifications. I like to help people cultivate & explore their practices with mindfulness & compassion to the body, awareness in the mind and intention. I love to discuss the anatomy of asanas & the philosophies of yoga!
