Andrea Cruwell
Owner | Certified Yoga Instructor
Wild, nature loving, universe honoring, divinely feminine, adoring wife, free spirited, homeschooling mom and newly... entrepreneur! Andrea is a lover of yoga, dancing, painting, hiking, her amazing husband and four beautiful daughters.
Namaste, my name is Andrea Cruwell. Studying and learning are by far my biggest passions in this life. In addition to my wife and mother roles. I earned a Bachelor’s degree in Social Psychology in 2012, became a certified Yoga Instructor (RYT200) in 2015. In 2017 I received a Shamanic Healing/ Energy Healing Diploma and Reiki I & II attunement. 2017 also brought with it an intense self-study in Energy Medicine and personal growth. My most recent adventure has been exploring the natural, primitive and intuitive ways we can heal by moving our bodies. I opened Embrace Movement Studio in 2022 and I am currently pursuing certification in Qigong; an Ancient Chinese healing art.
My teaching style is healing centered and wrapped in teaching self love. I devote my teaching not only to yoga, but to teach the intelligence of the body and nervous system through slowing down and feeling. I think when we approach movement from this perspective, we begin to work with the body rather than against it, and this creates a harmonious relationship that is pleasurable, playful and fun.
