Meet Renee
I ASPIRE TO BE AN INSPIRATION
Renee was born and raised in Nashville, TN and graduated from Tennessee State University in 2012 with a degree in Criminal Justice and Psychology. She is currently pursuing her Master's in Clinical Mental Health Counseling with the vision of integrating, yoga, reiki, and therapy into a holistic healing practice.
Outside of her wellness practice, she is the Worthy Matron of Asenath an Eastern Star chapter, where she leads through service, community engagement, and mentorship.
Most importantly, she is a mother to an amazing little boy named Aidyn, who she says continues to be her greatest teacher and motivation in life.
Renee's journey into yoga and holistic wellness began unexpectedly in 2013 when her runway coach, Dwight Pope, encouraged me to try yoga or Pilates to prepare for a fashion show. Thinking yoga would be easier, she gave it a shot - and quickly learned it was far more than just breathing and stretching. Yoga because a transformative practice that helped her manage anger, stress, and the grief of losing her grandmother.
Inspired by the impact it had on her life, she pursued her 200 hour vinyasa yoga certification at Kali Yuga Yoga in 2014, encouraged by her friend Jamal Hutchinson. Since then, yoga has taken her across the world, connected her with incredible people, and allowed her to guide others in their healing journeys - something she could have never imagined doing if she had followed her original path in criminal justice and psychology.
