Sydney was first introduced to yoga during high school in Wisconsin. In her personal fitness class, Sydney self-taught herself and some other students yoga. The coach of the boys’ basketball team was so impressed with Sydney he asked her to teach the team some yoga to improve their mobility. Sydney’s passion for yoga and wellness continued during her college years in San Diego. There she joined a co-ed Buddhist fraternity that focused on mental health and community service and held a leadership role in that organization during her Junior and Senior years. While currently in her last year of Law School at American University, Washington College of Law, she plans on getting her yoga certification in 2024 and continuing her journey.
