ABOUT US
We believe that life is better with Gelato (and Yoga)…
Emily Pease
Family YogaEmily is one-half of the heart of YOGABLOOM. She prefers salty over sweet, but when you do find her with a Gelato treat it would be Green Tea (Matcha) flavored. And just like that… Emily is full of good energy that has a peaceful and centered core. She will be teaching Family Yoga Classes and supporting the Kids’ Program.
Sandi Georgiew
Vinyasa (Adult) YogaSandi is the other half of the heart of YOGABLOOM. Truth is, Sandi has probably never refused of Gelato. He likes many (dare we say ALL?!) flavors - the only thing that really matters is that the supply is consistent. And just like that… Sandi likes variety, new adventures and a consistent supply of yoga. He will be challenging the kids to take Yoga Arm Balances and teaching Adult Vinyasa Classes.
Nemea
Inspiration & Co-TeacherNemea has been a part of the teaching team since she was just two-years-old. When she goes out for a Gelato she prefers Mint Chocolate Chip. And just like that… Nemea is COOL and refreshing with happy little nuggets of pure love. She will be helping out in the Family Yoga Classes and enjoying her school holiday by the pool. She enjoys making new friends while on retreat.
Jade
InspirationFinally, our newest team member is Jade - who clearly takes after her father, Sandi. She is definitely an equal-opportunity Gelato consumer. If we offer it, she will take it in any flavor (she just needs ‘more’). And just like that… Jade seems to have a motto for life that invites adventure and joy in most every situation. She will be busy making everyone smile and dancing like crazy to any music.
