OUR TEACHERS

Beth Houghton founded her children's yoga business, Bendy Berry Yoga,  in 2009 - a unique and playful introduction to yoga for kids.  She worked her way through several careers (film, tech. teaching, non-profit ) before deciding on her final career of teaching yoga to kids. She loves bringing calmness, stillness, and humor to both teaching and practicing yoga. Beth has been practicing yoga for 20 years. She was certified to teach children's yoga by Karma Kids Yoga, based in New York City in 2009 and received her certification to teach adult yoga in 2011 by completing 200 hours of training through Yoga Alliance and Flying Yoga Shala under Laura Camp. Over the past 14 years, Beth has taught over 2000 kids in local schools, at fundraising events, yoga studios, libraries, and recreation centers. She lives in Oakland with her two kids, her husband, Josh - her best teachers, and many pets. Perhaps too many pets. Her family and friends remind her to breathe deeply and laugh regularly - supporting, teaching and humbling her every day.
