Music style: Dirty South

Most people don’t know about her: “I had a past career in natural product chemistry… collected, isolated & named novel compound from a Fijian red seaweed (bromophycolide) that Bristol-Meyers Squibb showed interest in for its anti-cancer potential.”

Inner thoughts when she took her first Uprise class: “What?!? Oh my god! Why didn’t I come here sooner?!?”

Anne began practicing yoga in 2017, being drawn to yoga’s healing potential after multiple abdominal surgeries left her with unexpected physical and mental trauma. Ultimately, Anne fell in love with the mental clarity, physical strength, and personal community yoga offers. In June 2024, she completed her 200 hour yoga teacher training and soon after finished a Balance Body barre certification. She is passionate about music and excited to offer thoughtfully designed and accessible classes focusing on connecting breath and movement.

Off her mat, Anne has a degree in biology and chemical ecology. She is a mother of one and a co-owner of a mental fitness/executive coaching business with her husband. She loves growing and cooking food, dancing, hiking, fishing, and exploring the outdoors.
