Betsy (she/her) Teacher, MuseMovement Graduate
Muse: My students inspire me everyday
Betsy is a firm believer that in order to experience the greatest freedom in our bodies, we need to start with a solid foundation. A recovering Type A personality, movement for Betsy had always been about competition, pushing harder and faster. She found a fitting niche in distance running, despite the fact that every single season there was another injury to contend with. After repeated recommendations from her physiotherapist, she begrudgingly found her way into her first yoga class, desperate to “fix” all of her aches and pains. She never expected to fall in love with the practice. After years as a dedicated student, in 2014 Betsy completed a 300-hour teacher training in Bali with Pranashama Yoga. She has since gone on to complete additional trainings in Pre- and Post-Natal, Yin, Restorative, and Hot Yoga. In a quest to add more strength and control to her practice, Betsy found her way to Pilates. She completed the inaugural Muse Movement 200-hour Mat training in June 2018, and is looking forward to the Muse Reformer training in fall 2018. Betsy’s absolute favourite way to practice and to teach is to blend the two modalities, combining containment with absolute freedom of expression. Her goal in every class is to leave you feeling challenged, empowered, and more at home in your body.
