Myrna Mccoy
1 millionhr yoga teacher
Myrna’s yoga journey began in 1976 at the Sivananda Yoga Ashram in Val Morin, Quebec, where she earned her first teaching certificate—decades before yoga became the mainstream wellness practice it is today. Myrna has taught Hatha Yoga and meditation in Pennsylvania, South Florida, and right here in Georgia. Her continued studies included time at the Yoga College of India in Fort Lauderdale, and she has brought her grounded, accessible approach to a variety of community and wellness settings ever since. Since moving to Winder in 2007, Myrna has become a cornerstone of the local yoga scene. Myrna’s gentle wisdom, steady presence, and embodiment of yogic values lit the path that would one day lead Claire to create Ignite Yoga and Wellness. Now, decades into her teaching, Myrna continues to inspire students of all ages with her calm spirit, deep knowledge, and unwavering commitment to sharing the timeless gifts of yoga.
Rachel Hunt
200HR Yoga teacher
Rachel completed her 200-hour training at Peachtree Yoga Center in Sandy Springs. She first came to yoga seeking relief from stress-induced migraines and quickly discovered that a consistent practice brought deep and lasting healing.
Her passion now lies in making yoga accessible to all, and she’s dedicated to creating a space where everyone feels welcome and supported. When she’s not in the studio or classroom, you can find her enjoying nature, loving on animals, or lost in a good book.
