Rebekha Wolf
I am an Intuitive guide, Yoga Teacher, Reiki Master Teacher and Yoga Therapist in training. I want you to know, I genuinely care about your wellbeing. I want you to feel clear, connected and most of all loved. I want you to know I’m here to help, support and empower you in your transition back to your most authentic, raw, vulnerable, heart centered and balanced self.
My yoga journey began in 2006 and after 4 years of practice a debilitating back injury stopped me in my tracks and led me to re-evaluating my life. My journey to healing through yoga began. It opened my eyes to the many different types of asana yoga practices as well as living yoga off my mat. With diligence, patience and perseverance of balance in life I avoided back surgery and healed myself, on my terms. It was an Empowering part of my journey, leading me to want to share these tools and practices with others hoping they too will be inspired and empowered along their journey.
Rebekha has been with IFAA since early 2021.
