Tara is a wonderful soul, and cherished friend. Today we get a peek into her life!
Tara: Born in San Diego, my family moved to the Bay Area when I was a teenager. I grew up with a love for sports and spent my high school years training in Taekwondo. I received a First Degree Black Belt through the American Taekwondo Association and Instructor certification before the age of 18. College is where I took my first yoga class 16 years ago and dived into Eastern philosophy and meditation. After college I engaged in a marketing and events career and took weekends to train at Yoga Tree in San Francisco, earning my yoga teacher certification in the summer of 2016. Soon after that I moved to Portland and gave birth to a free-spirited boy, he continues to be my source of purpose and inspiration. Using my events background, I teach in-person classes, immersions, and workshops in the Portland metro area, as well curated location-based retreats around the world.My passion lies in the depth of the yogic tradition and how to thread ancient philosophy and movement with the modern science of psychology and physiology. I am currently pursuing my second undergraduate degree in psychology and plan to apply it towards a doctorate in neuroscience at OHSU.
