Cora grew up in southern Idaho and as an adult has lived in California, Utah and Massachusetts. Growing up in Idaho, she truly appreciated the outdoors and horseback riding in particular. Moving to Utah in 2010 turned out to be a great fit for Cora where she then took up hiking, trail running, backpacking yoga and rock climbing. Yoga for Cora started as a way to build strength and mental integrity to do the outdoor activities she enjoyed. After years of practicing, she decided to take yoga teacher training to deepen her practice and to be able to bring to it others, so others can also experience the different freedoms that come with a consistent yoga practice.
