Renee Martin
Teacher at Metta Wave Yoga
Renee's Story
Renee completed a 200 hr yoga teacher certification in November of 2018 with Alakh Yog Institute; a Yoga Alliance recognized program. She traveled to Rishikesh, India and immersed herself in the traditional practices of Hatha and Ashtanga yoga during the month-long intensive YTT.
Her yoga journey began while she was completing her Bachelor's degree in Energy Systems Engineering at the University of Ontario and Institute of Technology. What started as a way to be physically active gradually evolved into a spiritual practice and a way of life.
Renee structures her classes around the teachings from the training, as well as learnings from her personal practice. She draws inspiration from unexpected places and weaves these influences into the sequences she offers during practice. Her goal as an instructor is to challenge yogis to question their expectations and try new things.
