Asia’s love affair with movement started in childhood, yet her journey with yoga did not begin until 2014 with a trial class at a local dance studio. From there she was introduced to the mindfulness of yoga at a small community studio. It was not until moving to Hyattsville in 2015 that Asia came across Love Yoga and immediately felt connected and has been hooked on yoga ever since. She enjoys practicing Hatha yoga and Yin yoga. Her interest in yoga goes beyond her own practice as she believes in the healing powers of yoga and desires to share this practice with everyone. In summer of 2019, Asia became co-owner of the studio along with her mother Vicki! Asia has taught over 1000 hours of yoga classes, workshops and retreats.

Hi, I’m Mom Vick Or Ms. Vicki! I was introduced to yoga by my oldest daughter Asia Vianna. She started taking classes after college and grew to love it. After graduation she moved to the DMV area where I lived and found a studio, Love Yoga. When she came to me about taking ownership of Love Yoga Studio I was all in!!!! I love this community and am so proud of the wellness journey that Asia Vianna began because it led us all here!

I was an educator for children with special needs for over 20 years. I’ve worked in multiple school districts as well as in higher education. This experience has led to me offering Education Support Services from a mindfulness lens.

I am currently finishing the practicum requirements for my 200 Hour Yoga Teacher Training. I love teaching Serenity Yoga (gentle yoga and yoga nidra). I also enjoy the yoga immersion courses. I am often at the retreats, so I hope to see you soon!

"I began practicing yoga over 4 years ago while searching for a form of exercise to help with stress and anxiety. It started as a great way for me to develop a routine for flexibility and movement. Over time my practice evolved as a tool for stress reduction and self-care. I loved yoga so much she decided to teach and share the practice with others. 

Yoga is a tool to support our mind, body, and soul. It is a way to connect with our inner divine beings, to discover the part of us that has been forgotten, the parts that have been hidden. By purposefully merging movement, breathwork, and meditation we can tune into our energy; allowing us to ignite our spirits, connect with the beauty of our souls, and deepen the love for our authentic selves. Thru the practice we are invited to look inward and observe, release, adjust, enabling us to tap into the divine essence that dwells inside of us all."
