About Be Love Yoga
Bettina
I opened Be Love Yoga LLC on January 2, 2021. Yoga and dance have always been a huge and important part of my life but over the last 3 years, Yoga has become a passion of mine. In 2019 I became a 200RYT certified LivFree™ Yoga instructor but my journey didn't stop there. It had just begun. My 200 hour teacher training changed my life and I couldn't get enough. I registered in the following LivFree™ 300 hour Master Teacher Training and completed that in January 2021. Yoga became much more to me than just physical movement. Yoga became a lifestyle. A safe place. A place of growth and a place of change. And I felt called to share the gift of yoga with others. Today Be Love Yoga is a growing community and I can't wait to see where the future leads us!

I believe that when you combine movement with music, and the heart and soul of a group of people, magic happens. I grew up dancing and have learned that my heart is fullest when I am moving and expressing myself through music, and there is nothing like sharing that feeling with a community. That is why everytime I lead a class, my goal is to help participants fall in love with movement, whatever that may mean to them. I use the foundations of Pilates in my classes to inspire students to listen to their body, while using the power of music to motivate movement. I believe that everyone should leave class feeling empowered, and with a full heart.
I was certified in POP Pilates® in 2015, and I have been teaching group fitness ever since. I am certified in Mat Pilates through Balanced Body, and am currently working on becoming a Nationally Certified Pilates Teacher through the National Pilates Certification Program. I am also certified in Barre through the International Ballet Barre Fitness Association.

As a former kickboxing instructor, it became very real to me one day that I would need to find a better way to help my body age safely. I had dabbled in yoga for decades, but it wasn't until I stumbled on Toby Schoeneberger's style of teaching that I fell in love. After training with her for 2 years, I began teaching in 2015... and have never looked back.
Yoga brings us back to where it all began. When we start out in this life, we only know breath; it's our most primal need.
Yoga = Breath.
If you can breathe, you can do yoga.
My goal is to help make yoga approachable for all. My teaching style is light-hearted and authentic, doing away with any fussiness or formalities and just getting to the heart of what you & your body truly need. Having been in & out of physical therapy for well over 20 years, I am a stickler for safe alignment within postures. I teach everything from gentle/beginner to power vinyasa, but you will always hear me encouraging props, modifications, and any other means of supporting your body with integrity and respect. We only get *one* beautiful vessel to journey through this life with... let's honor it and help it thrive. I look forward to meeting you on your mat! Come flow with TLC! 🙏
