Myrna Patterson, of YogaNuvo,  experienced her first yoga class in 2012.  She began training soon after, becoming certified to teach in 2013 by the National Exercise & Sports Trainers Association. Having led group fitness classes at the YMCA for several years, the shift to yoga was seamless.  She has since taught Vinyasa (flow style) and Silver Sneakers Yoga at YMCA as well as various workshops and special events in the Pittsburgh area.  She is also certified with the National Exercise Trainers Association as a personal trainer in 2017.  Reach her at Yoganuvo@gmail.com

YogaNuvo was born when she became aware of a need for affordable and gentle physical fitness options in her community. Having studied strength training she began to fuse this discipline into her yoga classes and formed YogaNuvo with its signature flow.  Her goal is for each member to customize every pose to meet their own fitness level, to promote a positive, uplifting and sustainable experience and to have a balanced lifelong wellness plan.  Myrna loves to crochet and knit, and specializes in yoga for the hands, wrists and fingers.
