Candace discovered yoga in 2008 as a means to self heal on a physical, mental and emotional level. As a dancer during childhood, she had developed an early love for expressing herself through movement. However, it was not until she experienced Yoga that she was able to find the same kind of freedom and movement in a meditative art form. The practice also became the best therapy to address the bodily stress from her daily job as a healthcare practitioner and to help deal with the daily challenges of life. In 2012, Candace left her home in California to embark on a new life journey all the way across the world to Germany, where she continues to teach and practice Yoga. Her classes provide a playground for self-discovery and awareness. Candace encourages students to move from a place of self-love, honesty and focus, while incorporating lightheartedness into her teaching style. She creates a safe and accessible practice for all students, with particular focus on physical alignment. Candace is committed not only to helping students learn more about their bodies, but to realize that they have the tools and power within themselves to live a more fulfilled, balanced and beautiful life. A 500 hour Registered Yoga Teacher (RYT 500), Candace is honored to have completed teacher trainings through The Mount Madonna Center in California and with world-renowned teachers Jason Crandell, Maty Ezraty, Noah Maze and Stephanie Snyder. Additionally, she is certified in Pre/Postnatal Yoga through Jane Austin and Aerial Yoga through The Yoga Studio in Campbell, California. Candace’s background includes a broad range of yoga styles such as Ashtanga, Hatha, Iyengar, and various Vinyasa styles. When not on the mat, Candace enjoys the outdoors and loves spending time with her husband and daughter, who continue to inspire her every day.
