Hello! My name is Linda Joy Herron, and I have been practicing yoga for over 18 years. Initially, I started with many different types of yoga – Iyengar, Yin, Ashtanga, and later found Vinyasa. 

I have a son (14) and a daughter (19), and when they were younger I wanted to expose them to yoga. So I became certified in Karma Kids yoga and taught a class at their school. I taught at the school for 4 years, extending my class time along the way from 60 to 90 minutes because the kids wanted more. It was an honor to teach such amazing young spirits.

I fell in love with Vinyasa yoga and decided to immerse myself into a 200 hour teacher training course. (Never really wanting to be a teacher but just to learn more for myself.) After completing the course, I continued with my own Vinyasa practice and started to teach friends, free of charge. 

Unfortunately, I stopped practicing for a while for a few reasons: depression, several herniated discs, and frustration in not becoming very flexible. But the universe has a way of bringing us things if we just listen. In early 2019, while in Thailand on a scuba diving trip, I saw these strange hammocks hanging in a yoga studio. Of course, I had to know what they were so I took a private class with my husband. Turns out, it was aerial yoga!

As soon as I returned home I did a search for aerial yoga and found a studio nearby that a friend owned (I had no idea they did aerial). I took my first class and I was hooked! My inner child came out – I was smiling, giggling and the herniated discs were feeling better.

I wanted to be a student for a year before thinking about an aerial teacher training, and then Covid-19 hit the world. After a couple months my depression was bad and my cervical and lumbar were radiating pain down my arm, hips and leg – I knew I had to do something. I enrolled and completed a 35 hour teacher training and from there all I wanted was to keep learning more and more.

Currently, I have completed a 250 hour aerial yoga teacher training, a 200 hour aerial Pilates training, an 80 hour aerial yin yoga training and am continuing my education with a 500 hour aerial teacher training course right now. I am an open book. Without aerial yoga, my smile wouldn’t be as bright and my inner child wouldn’t exist. I love my family but we need things for ourselves – especially while fighting severe depression.

My passion is one-on-one or semi-private lessons; this way we can work on exactly what you desire or need.

I would like to thank all of my teachers and mentors all over the world.

Namaste,

Linda
