Cara McCarthy - Yoga Instructor

Carolyn "Cara" McCarthy began her yoga practice while dancing and studying at The Ohio State University. She found yoga to be a perfect compliment to her dancing, and has continued a regular practice on her mat ever since. In 2012, after completing her Master's degree in Counseling, she realized that she wanted to integrate her passion for yoga into her work helping students.

Her yoga journey led her to 200-hour teacher training with Grace Morales in Charlotte, which she completed in 2013. When Cara is not teaching or practicing yoga, she spends her days as a full-time school counselor. She loves to be active, which translates into her yoga practice. She enjoys sharing her love of movement and yoga with others, and believes coming onto the mat can help us quiet our thoughts enough to hear the intentions of our hearts.
