Beth is a certified surf and flat water paddle board instructor as well as a certified Sivananda Yoga teacher. She fell in love with the ocean and with Yoga several years ago and hasn’t looked back. Coming from a non-surfer family, Beth’s love for the ocean was sparked by surfing with Daniel and learning about the classic “old school” style. These days Beth is working on her surfing and is teaching Hatha Yoga in several different Yoga studios at home.
