Donna Karen Benavides

Donna is grateful for her first exposure to Yoga during a semester at her university elective course in NYC. She has a Bachelor of Science degree. In 2010, she found Yoga again or maybe it found her. Dedicating her time between raising her family, work and feeling the Yoga benefits with continuous practice, she completed her RYT® 200 Yoga Teacher and a year later added her Prenatal Yoga Teacher RPYT® Certification. After years of attending Reiki meditation circles, she was guided to become a Reiki Master. She is the Founder of ICP Care 501(c)(3) nonprofit helping pregnant and postnatal mamas and families for 15 years.

Yoga has helped her in countless ways throughout her life and she wants to pay it forward to anyone attending her classes. Her practice, training and experience has exposed her to various styles of Yoga. She enjoys teaching all levels, especially prenatal and postnatal students. Her compassion and love of Yoga is an inspirational extension through lovingly guiding students with poses (asanas), breathing techniques (pranayama) and meditation to reconnect with their essence.
 
Her love of Yoga practice continues after 14 years as she continues to spread the Yoga love. The amazing gifts you will receive physically, mentally, and more. Journey with me to guide you toward the beautiful Yoga mind-body-breath awareness to connect within.
