  • Isabel Swartz

    YOGA TRAINER

    Originally from Texas, Isabel has been living in the Bay for 10 years and boxing for almost as long! She has been practicing yoga (or has yoga been practicing her?) for over two decades. She is very excited to share her practice with the Bay Breakers family, especially those who are new to yoga. She firmly believes that yoga is whatever you make of it - and that the only thing you need to prepare for class is to prepare to be surprised by yourself and by the practice. Whether you're brand new or you've been at it for decades, she invites you to come and expand your mind and body in a fun, safe environment. Let's get weird!
