Andrea has always loved movement, whether it is walking in the Adirondack Mountains, or training in  Ballet, Modern and Jazz.  It was the search later, as the mother of two boys, for a type of exercise that would be challenging physically as well as stress and mental angst-relieving.  Initially she became a student of  Kripalu Yoga, which teaches postures with much attention to alignment, getting the body in a steady, comfortable, healthy state, after which, the meditative, non-reactive, "witness" mind is cultivated.  This allows the ego to fade away along with our pre-conceived notions about ourselves, and the true essence of one’s′ being emerges.

After moving to Miami in ′99, she discovered Ashtanga yoga, which catches the body and mind of the practitioner in its tempo and momentous thrall, at once feeling as if one is flying high and being wrung out like a sponge.  This system of Yoga, with its heat and purification of both the physical body, nervous and endocrine  systems, would be amazing alone, but the crown jewel is the experience of our true selves, our higher self, bliss and peace that is too good not to share with whomever we come across.
