Strength and Momentum with Bonnie Johanson

A native of Southern California , Bonnie found yoga at the firm recommendation of a physician at UCLA, her alma mater. He made her promise to enroll in an intro yoga class for the sake of her health, at a then small independent yoga studio named, Yoga Works. She obliged – it was love after her first downward facing dog – and so began her affair with the yoga mat over 15 years ago!

Since that first yoga class, Bonnie has evolved from yoga practitioner to yoga instructor. She has studied with a renowned list of master Yoga teachers such as Max Strom of Exhale for Sacred Movement in Venic e, Ca; Chuck Miller, founder of Yoga Works in Brentwood, Ca; Dr. Larry Payne, LMU; Bryan Kest of Power Yoga in Santa Monica, Ca; Rodney Yee of Piedmont Yoga in San Francisco, Ca; and famed Ashtanga yogi, Dave Swenson.
