Robin Blackwell

Over 10 years ago, I found yoga through a lunchtime yoga program offered by my employer. When Charlotte Family Yoga Center (CFYC) opened its doors in 2010, I was eager to become one of its practitioners. Before long, I developed a consistent physical yoga practice and a sincere desire to learn more.
​
Over the years, this ancient practice, its principles and powers have guided me to a place that allows me celebrate who I really am. As a result, I have deepened my connection to my Higher Power and I actively embrace all the Joy this life has to offer . I credit my yoga practice with changing the trajectory of my life and and every day, I am deeply grateful.
Through CFYC’s education programming, I completed Assisting and Alignment training in 2013, followed by the completion of my 200 Hour Teacher Training in May 2015.
I teach Slow Flow, Deep Stretch, Long, Slow Deep and Power Yoga. I am driven by a deep connection to the CFYC community and I am personally committed to the empowerment and progress of EVERY student I teach.
​
Today, I work full time in the Financial Services industry and I share my life with the best dog ever, Professor Tisdale. When I’m not teaching yoga, I love to travel with my yoga mat, domestically and internationally.
​
I am strong supporter of the arts, music and the Carolina Panthers.
Above all things, I am forever a student and I am honored to share what I learn with my students. It’s an honor to serve and I look forward to the future with joyful anticipation.
