About Beatriz “Bea” Harnois, RYT 500

Bea is a 500-hour Registered Yoga Teacher with three years of experience. Her goal is to serve as an inspiration for her students and promote peace, relaxation, and wellness through yoga. She loves teaching children as well as adults at the beginner level.

After a decade of practicing yoga, Bea embarked on the journey of yoga teacher training to improve her personal practice. She completed her first 200-hour training in Modified Primary Ashtanga Yoga in February 2019. Bea then received her certificate in kid's yoga after completing an immersive 25-hour teacher training with Yoga Shala in July 2019. In addition, she completed a 300-hour Power Vinyasa training at Inner Jasmin Yoga School in Hinsdale and a 200-hour Viniyoga training at Yoga Among Friends in Downers Grove in 2020.

Bea believes yoga invites transformation to the body, soul, and mind that can be extended outside the mat. Her teaching style is calm yet deliberate. She pays attention to details and focuses on breath and alignment to avoid discomfort. Be prepared for a relaxing yet challenging yoga class that will allow you to be comfortable where you are while making progress and growing your practice.
