Bethany Wallace was first introduced to yoga in 2004 while studying dance at The University of Colorado. She found that yoga helped ease the aches and pains of her dancer body and provided a quiet space in her hectic schedule. After only a few classes, she knew she had to share her love of yoga through teaching. Soon after, she began studying under the instruction of Barbara Ruzansky at West Hartford Yoga, where she completed her 200-hour yoga teacher certification in 2010.
In the years since, Bethany has become a certified Prenatal Yoga Teacher, Restorative Yoga Teacher, and in 2017 graduated from the Connecticut Center for Massage Therapy to become a Licensed Massage Therapist. For 10 years she was an owner/operator of Bloom Yoga Fitness Studios alongside her mother and sister, Julie and Morgan Wallace. During her time at Bloom she developed several workshops and training programs including a 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training and a Restorative Yoga Teacher Training.
Bethany is best known for her creative sequencing, lighthearted playlists, and soothing presence. She is a teacher’s teacher and absolutely loves sharing her knowledge and passion for yoga and anatomy through her trainings and classes.
