MEET AMANDA

Amanda O’Keefe, RYT, began her transformative yoga journey 14 years ago during a pivotal moment of personal and professional transition. What started as a physical practice quickly evolved into a profound exploration of healing, compassion, and creativity through the integration of mind, body, and breath. As Amanda journeyed across the continental US, Canada, and Maui, she immersed herself in diverse yoga practices that challenged her both physically and mentally. Each unique environment introduced her to inspiring teachers who offered a spectrum of perspectives, from heated hatha and somatic flows to soothing sound meditations.

Before returning from Maui to the mainland, Amanda pursued formal yoga teacher training with the Movement Wisdom School of Yoga, earning certifications in Hatha, Vinyasa, Yin, and Restorative yoga styles. Amanda’s classes offer creative sequences and innovative approaches to traditional asanas. She integrates anatomical and philosophical insights with the goal of fostering heightened awareness and embodiment on and off the mat. Amanda is committed to empowering students with inclusive cues that honor their individual bodies, inviting them to explore and expand their practice safely and authentically.

Driven by a deep passion for sharing yoga’s profound healing benefits, Amanda gratefully integrates wisdom gained from her esteemed teachers. Continuously exploring the depths of this ancient practice, she is dedicated to guiding others on their transformative journeys of self-discovery and empowerment.

Outside of teaching yoga, Amanda is a transdisciplinary designer, educator, and artist. Driven by her desire to inspire, regenerate, and transform, she applies creative strategy to various domains including spatial design, product development, graphics, and sound.
