MEET MEG
Meg is a Pisces sun, Capricorn moon, and Aquarius rising with a playful love for all things mystical, artistic, and rooted in the natural world. Originally from the Midwest, she first came to Yosemite in 2019 and fell in love with the Sierra landscape. A true creative and adventurer at heart, Meg finds joy and empowerment in hiking, dancing, writing, backpacking, martial arts, rock climbing, and capturing the beauty of the natural world through photography, drawing, and writing.
In 2018, she earned her RYT200 certification through School Yoga Institute in Perú, where she studied Vinyasa and Hatha yoga with an emphasis on Peruvian shamanic practices. Her teaching style is informed by an extensive background in professional Latin dance, and deepened through additional training in Holy Fire Reiki and Trauma-Informed Yoga (TIY) under teachers like Ashley Seymour, Zabie Yamasaki, and Ashley Turner.
Meg serves as the Director of Operations for Balanced Rock, managing the organization’s finances, digital platforms, and is the creative driver behind Balanced Rock’s marketing and social media campaigns. In addition to her role with Balanced Rock, Meg is also writing her first novel and delights in teaching yoga for the community.
