Milynn Rose Mapalo

Milynn's yoga journey began ten years ago in a fitness-based yoga class at a local gym. That first class, specifically an impossible side plank pose, still remains one of her most humbling experiences today. Eventually she made her way back to the mat in 2011 and hasn't stopped practicing since. By 2014, Milynn found John Salisbury's incredible teachings in an Ashtanga based practice which led her to pursue her own certification in Scottsdale, Arizona. She went on to teach at various studios around the Phoenix Valley before spending some time abroad and in Los Angeles, finally making her way back to her home state of Illinois last year. Initially, Milynn wanted to share this practice with others as it has slowed her scoliosis and significantly diminished her lifelong back pain. However, the mental and spiritual benefits that the practice of yoga provides are truly what drives her to continue teaching. She looks forward to growing the yoga community at L&A Healing Studio.

Yoga has been a part of my life for over 8 years, and my practice has helped me through many transitions finding strength from within and being open to possibilities I never thought existed. Yoga inspires me to live each moment more mindfully and authentically. I completed my 200 hour alignment based Vinyasa Flow and Restorative training at PeaceLab Yoga Shala under the guidance of my teacher, Melanie McQuown and her teacher ,Christina Sell. I will always be a student of the practice and am deeply grateful for the loving wisdom my teachers have shared with me. In my classes, I love to combine slow flow with restorative poses and a dose of inspiration to help you deepen your practice and find your strength from within. I seek to help others thrive in life by nurturing body, mind and soul with yoga, and my hope is that you step off the mat experiencing the magic of yoga-leaving feeling a bit better than when you arrived and applying lessons learned on the mat to your life off t
