ANGI BLOOM

Angi Bloom, founder of YOGABLOOM, a dedicated, caring, warm, loving, highly experienced and innovative teacher, began teaching yoga to high school students in the 70s and was fortunate enough to practice yoga throughout her first pregnancy.

Since 1999, Angi has taken numerous yoga teacher training course and completed an extensive fitness specialist program.  Angi consults with health care professionals to create customized programs which address the unique needs of each client.  Angi is committed to her personal yoga practice and enjoys learning yoga from her inspiring teachers. She is constantly researching, exploring and creating new approaches to best meet the needs of her students. She has developed many healing techniques to help alleviate her own pain and the discomforts of others.

Due to a hip replacement surgery in the fall of 2008, Angi has developed an expertise in reducing the discomfort of arthritis, building a strong and stable structure to help clients heal both prior and post surgery.  Her particular hip, back, knees, shoulder and neck issues have taught her how to help herself and many others live more comfortably.

Angi opened Yogabloom studio - a fully equipped Iyengar style yoga studio overlooking Lac Dufour in Mont-Tremblant - in the fall of 2007  and welcomes all students, yoga teachers, alternative healers, and personal trainers to bloom through yoga at Yogabloom.

Angi is grateful to her teacher Hart Lazer and all his teachers at United Yoga Montreal for their rich and caring teachings.
