Bio
I have always been passionate about health and wellness, and instantly fell in love with yoga since day one. I was diagnosed with scoliosis in my teens and could barely see my big toes by the time I reached my 30’s and recommended by my Chiropractor to try Yoga to strengthen my core and support my weak back. Well, truth be told, I disliked my first class, but became a diligent yoga practitioner after another dozen classes and various teachers. Realizing that Yoga not only made me feel better on a physical level, doing things I wouldn’t imagine I could do on my mat, but on a spiritual and mental level too! On and off of the mat...it’s all YOG!
At some point, I felt the need to share what I had learned throughout my health journey with our Community and began teaching at the YMCA part-time while working full-time in Sales. True story, I taught everything from Yoga to group fitness classes including, but not limited to Body Fit, Cycling, Fit For Life and Pilates at the Y. After another seven plus years, I decided to take a step forward to officially become a certified Yoga teacher. Teaching and helping others to become more proficient in their own practice became my passion.
March 2010 – I took my passion and the leap of faith, and we opened the doors of “Pedretti Power Yoga LLC” community. In the midst of the YOGA JOY that I was sharing 7 days a week at 805 George Street, I was diagnosed with Ulcerative Colitis. This diagnosis forced me to slow down and stop taking my own health for granted. I can’t thank our Community enough for their wonderful support from the day the Studio opened…until the day the Pandemic forced the closure of our beautiful space on March 17, 2020.
Combined with my Wellness Coaching certification, I have been inspired by my students (aka Yoga friends for life) to become a better teacher and a better person above all. My claim to fame is that I am the least flexible Yoga Teacher in Wisconsin! Proud of it.
Yoga can be whatever you make of it and I’m not one to force any aspect of yoga upon anyone else. My amazing job is to simply offer students the tools to integrate yoga into their lives as they see fit. I have a Yoga mat and I want to travel, be around good energy, connect with like-minded people, learn new things, grow...
