  • Ann Fitzmaurice-Russ

    Ann found her passion for yoga just over 2 years ago. She quickly realized that yoga was the way to bring balance into her life while complimenting her other interests in running, swimming, and cycling. After completing her first certification to teach introductory yoga, she has continued pursuing her studies through the Triad Yoga Institute and is completing her 330 hour certification to become a Nationally Registered Yoga Instructor.
