Amber Battles is a Registered Yoga Teacher (RYT) with Yoga Alliance. Having completed 200 hours with Hot Yoga Aptos and an additional 100 hour advanced training with Hannah Muse working towards completing 500 hrs by spring 2019.
Amber believes yoga to be a sacred practice, a discipline that acts as a remembrance and an unraveling of our true nature that tends to get buried by our busy lives. It is the cultivating of awareness, presence and consciousness through pranayama, meditation and asana.
