This month, we have Kelly Merydith of Ahimsa Yoga Studio joining us as our speaker! Kelly is a 500hr certified yoga instructor and has been teaching since 2010. She enjoys teaching all styles of yoga including Vinyasa Flow, Hatha, Beginners, Yin, Restorative, and Meditation.
Kelly opened Ahimsa Yoga Studio at the age of 23, a year after graduating from college with a degree in business. Since then, she and her business partner opened three yoga studios from scratch, bought three, and sold one. Kelly is no stranger to entrepreneurship and enjoys the process of creating new businesses. She also loves the flexible schedule and work/life balance that some business owners can enjoy. She is an avid goal setter and loves leading goal setting sessions for friends and companies.
Description of Ahimsa from Kelly
"Ahimsa Yoga Studio Berwyn is located at 3120 S. Oak Park Ave., just a couple of blocks north of the Metra and Depot District. The studio was established in 2015 after we saw that Berwyn had no yoga studios. Since then we have introduced many Berwyn residents to this practice and they’ve fallen in love with yoga, just like we have. Most of our teachers live in the community and love teaching people how to stretch, breathe, and reduce stress."
