Chelsey Watkins
200 RYT, RDA
LET'S MAKE YOGA A LIFESTYLE!
Chelsey is a Bay Area native who is happiest at the beach or lost in the forest with her dogs. She is a joyful and upbeat yoga practitioner who brings energy to every class. She holds a space of safety and comfort for all as she encourages others to live in love, kindness, and compassion.
Always a student, she studies medical science, philosophy, Sanskrit, and religion.

Chelsey is a lifelong student of inner healing and pranayama work. As a youth and young adult, she studied martial arts specializing in Tae Kwon Do and Kenpo Karate with Grand Master Boushin. In martial arts she first experienced the importance of inner peace, and 15+ years experience in team sports taught her the dynamics of functioning as a team toward a common goal.
Chelsey has been an avid practitioner of Hatha, Iyengar, Martial Arts, and Meditation since 2008. She began to study herbalism and mixology, learning to create holistic home remedies. Chelsey then continued her health and wellness studies, graduating with honors and obtaining a BS in Kinesiology. She earned her credentials as a Registered Dental Assistant and Hygienist with California Dental Association. After working nearly a decade in health care she concentrated her occupation on inner healing. She began meditation specialist training under the wing of her mentor, Dr. Susan Taylor, and in 2020, Chelsey completed her teacher training as a Registered Yoga Teacher with Yoga Alliance under the teaching of Jennifer Prugh and Noell Clark.
Chelsey is dedicated to Mindful Meditation practices and continues to deepen her practice. As a Reiki Master and Yoga Mystic she has a passion to help people quiet their mind and release tension in the body. Chelsey believes yoga is more than a workout, it is a moving meditation with a firm commitment to truth, non-violence, and love.
