Paradise’s love of dance, fitness, and movement brought her to her yoga mat over 20 years ago. It didn’t take long for her to discover that Yoga was her true passion as it provides an endless journey of self-discovery, mindfulness, and a sense of balance and calm throughout her life. After years of reaping the benefits of yoga personally, Paradise felt the desire to give back and to share yoga with others through teaching. She is a certified 500-hour Yoga instructor and has guided hundreds of students at multiple yoga studios from her home base of Austin, Texas. She has certifications in Hatha and Vinyasa yoga, Ashtanga yoga, Yin yoga, as well as yoga for body positivity. She has led multiple international yoga retreats.

Paradise combines energetic forms of yoga such as Flow and Vinyasa with quieter practices of Yin and Restorative, for a well-rounded class. In whatever style she is teaching she brings a warm, welcoming aura that empowers her students to grow in the practice by fostering a challenging and nurturing environment. She encourages playfulness, honesty, and enjoyment as each student explores and creates their individual practice and experience. Paradise believes passionately in yoga’s ability to unite oneself and those around you in a positive environment of personal growth.
