Ginny Caples Founding Teacher, Mentor
INSPIRATIONS: I am inspired by the 4 agreements: Be impeccable with your word, Take nothing personally, Assume nothing, Do your best. I am delighted by the sense of community yoga creates, by the dedication to self realization, and the ability of people to accept failure and truly succeed.
WHY I PRACTICE: I love to get on my mat and deal with whatever life tosses my way. I feel grounded, balanced, and joyful and know I am unique. If yoga teaches us nothing else, it opens us up to possibility, potential, patience and playfulness.
WHY I TEACH: My passion for teaching evolved through my nursing experience; I am a caregiver! Each individual teaches me things I never would have learned through training or books. I have tremendous satisfaction by observing so many people step on their mat and connect, flourish, and find their way to the wonderful community that is YOGA!

Joya Abbott Founder, Teacher, Mentor
Wild Ember combines the love for my family & community, with my passion for music & movement. I (she/her) am a queer femme mom of two, musician, yoga teacher and community builder.
My personal mantra during my teacher training with Prana Power Yoga was "Kindness, Stability, Flow". Those three words still resonate with me and I come back to them daily. My classes are invigorating flows, focused on breath, alignment and self acceptance, sprinkled with humor and yogic philosophy.
I am passionate about creating a brave space for ALL. Equity, anti-racism and walking the walk is a core value for me and the fuel that drives me! I am committed to fostering diversity and inclusion in our yoga community, and strongly believe that yoga is for all bodies. I am SUPER PROUD of our teaching team and the community that we are building together. WELCOME!!
