Our Story

---

My name is Angela, and I am a certified yoga instructor with a passion for health, wellness and education. Together with my cousin Sandra, we are Battwin Healing and Wellness.

My 200-hour Hatha Yoga Teacher Training (CYA-RYT 200) included Trauma-Informed Movement and Presence (TIMP) Certification, Level 1. In my yoga teaching, I tailor my approach to meet the unique needs of individuals and groups, with a focus on cultivating calm flexibility, restoring system balance, and creating mental peace. I am also certified in Yin and Restorative Yoga (2024).

My journey as an educator began over two decades ago, supporting people and communities. I am a vice principal in the public education system, as well as an MEd student at Laurier University.

As a RYT and educational leader, I am committed to empowering people, both on and off the yoga mat, to lead balanced, healthy, and fulfilling lives. My purpose is to instill a love for learning and self-care in all those I have the privilege to guide.

Hi, I’m Sandra, the other half of Battwin Healing and Wellness 

I am a Registered Nurse with over 35 years experience, based on Western medicine. I believe in a holistic approach when it comes to our health. My goal is finding the synergies that exist between Western and holistic approaches and utilizing the two to create a support system for our body and ultimate health.

Certified in Aromatherapy and Reflexology, I owned a business that focused on supporting health. Certified as a Life Coach I coach individuals to optimize their confidence, balance, and self-care to support them in the next step of any journey of their life. 

My desire is to assist people to tap into listening to the cues their body is telling them and equip you with knowledge, skills, and tools that allow you to navigate to your optimal self.
