YOGA INSTRUCTOR - RYT 200, COLLABORATOR
Grace Hokama
Grace, a local Colorado girl, has always felt drawn to nature and being active in the mountains. She started yoga as a young teenager and always enjoyed how it helped supplement her other activities of running, hiking and rock climbing. After a challenging relationship ended, Grace found herself back on the mat this time as a healing place for heart wounds.
After practicing with a wonderful teacher, Grace was asked to start teaching in her small mountain town. She began leading small classes. She is also a junior high math teacher and began to dream about bringing yoga to her students. After bringing it up to her administration and getting approved, Grace decided to continue her own yoga journey.
In the summer of 2021, Grace went to Moksha Yoga Amazonica to get her 200 hour Yoga Teacher Training and found a family of yogis from around the world. She is forever grateful to her yoga community with Moksha, and every yoga teacher who’s guided her before. Now, Grace has a full time yoga class of students ages 13-17 that meet everyday during the school day. They are loving the opportunity to engage in something so different from the norm in their small mountain school. Yoga helped Grace come back to her own acceptance of herself as a person worthy of true love and she hopes to spread this love to anyone who pursues yoga.
