Born in England, raised in Sunnyvale, California, and seasoned by 20 years dancing in New York City, Bonnie E. Erickson brings to the mat a lifetime of movement, mindfulness, and heart-centered teaching. After nearly two decades as a devoted student before embarking on teaching, she's now guided more than 2,500 yoga classes and is currently enrolled in Stanford's YogaX program, training in trauma-informed therapeutic yoga.

Bonnie's had a delightfully meandering path -- in her 20s she opened restaurants for Wolfgang Puck, including one in Kuwait, she worked as an editor at The New York Times, and spent twelve years as the Director of Educational Programming at the celebrated Broadway Dance Center.

Known for her soothing voice, warm presence, creative sequencing, accessible practices, collected wisdom, and her silly soul, Bon's classes leave students feeling invigorated, integrated, inspired, and joyful. You also might laugh so hard you pee a little.
