I completed my 200-hour yoga teacher training in Northern Virginia in 2013 and taught in a small studio for a few years. When my family moved to Cedar Rapids 4 years ago, I found Toula Yoga where I teach Hatha, and became certified to teach Prenatal Yoga.</p><p> </p><p>(Note: In case of rain, we will reschedule this event.)</p> 2021-07-27 18:30:00 -0500
