Brittany Wall

Instructor

Brittany was introduced to yoga during her freshman year college exercise class at Quinnipiac University in 2007. However, it was not until diving into a steady Ashtanga Vinyasa practice that she truly began to fall in love with and see the benefits yoga was producing for her body and also her mind. A tap and jazz dancer of 18 years and former dance instructor at Ella Marie School of Dance, Brittany instantly took to the fluidity of the postures and challenges on the mat. In 2013, she decided to seize the opportunity and enroll in the 200-hr teacher training program at Emerge Yoga and Wellness in Bellmore, NY. Through a close mentorship with Vanessa Cafiero as well continuing her education in 300-hr teacher training, Brittany sharpened her skills, allowing her to bring her own personal style and creativity to her sequencing. Inspired by Ashtanga and Forrest teachings, Brittany teaches an uplifting vinyasa flow with a big emphasis on connecting to the breath, your inner power. Her knowledge of contemporary movement combined with her passion for uplifting spirited music interweave to create a unique and high- spirited experience that will elevate your practice. Certifications: Emerge 200HR RYT, Emerge 300HR RYT, AntiGravity Fundamentals 1&2, AntiGravity Kids 1&2, AntiGravity Restorative, AntiGravity Pilates, Reiki 1

Samara Olivera

Studio Director + Instructor

When Samara first started practicing Yoga her mom said something that stuck with her forever: “I’ve never seen you like anything physical.” She was never into fitness or exercising and definitely never went to a gym. Though the practice of Yoga seemed physical on the outside, she realized she enjoyed it so much because of the mental strength that she gained from the practice. Teaching Yoga became a way for Samara to continue to expand her practice and to share with others the amazing benefits she continues to receive every single day.Certifications: Emerge 200HR RYT, Emerge 300HR RYT, AntiGravity Fundamentals 1&2, Reiki Level 1 & 2
