Elizabeth Rowan is a formerly anxious, multiple BlackBerry-clutching executive who recently went all-in to lose the high heels, teach yoga full-time and drum up some health and inner peace. Elizabeth received her 200 hour yoga teaching training certificate from Anahata Yoga, Hong Kong, in 2011 while studying under Yogananth Andiappan, son of Dr. Asana Andiappan of Chennai, India. She is also a certified Pranakriya prenatal yoga teacher by Jacci Reynolds and a certified Radiant Child Yoga teacher by Shakta Khalsa. Elizabeth currently teaches Hatha, Yin, Prenatal and Children’s yoga in Savannah, Georgia after spending the last several years in Hong Kong.
