Erica McLaughlin

Becoming a yoga instructor was a natural progression for me because I have always had an interest in activities that promote a healthy lifestyle. As a competitive gymnast and collegiate cheerleader I learned about the benefits of regular practice and yoga provides those benefits and more. I also obtained a degree in Food & Nutrition in order to one day help others learn how to eat properly.

I found Bliss yoga in 2004 when my stress levels were at their highest. Yoga has taught me many lessons, but most important how to be present. This lesson has had tremendous impact on my life because I am more self aware than I ever have been. Since then I've primarily studied with Shri and supplemented my yoga journey through workshops with Duncan Wong, Shiva Rea, and others. To schedule private instruction or in class assistance E-Mail.
