About DuShaun:

This inspired her to become a practitioner to bring yoga to more people who looked like her. “DuShaun is a Registered Yoga Teacher (RYT-200) through the Yoga Alliance and was certified through Bloom Yoga Studio in June of 2020.In addition, she received her 95-hour Children’s Yoga Certification from Mission Propelle in the summer of 2018.
