A warm welcome to Dogwood Studio’s newest intern, Rachel Kubinski! Rachel earned a Bachelor of Science in Sports Medicine with a Minor in Dance from Mercyhurst University. She then completed her Doctorate in Physical Therapy at Duke University.
Rachel has worked as an outpatient orthopedic and women’s health physical therapist for 12 years. She completed her 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training at Carolina Yoga Company in Carrboro and is certified as a RYT through Yoga Alliance. She enjoys creatively incorporating her knowledge of anatomy and kinesiology into her yoga classes. Rachel believes that yoga can and should be accessible to anyone, regardless of their flexibility, age, or strength. Her teaching approach considers that structurally we are all built and navigate life’s experiences differently. She encourages her students to intuitively experience movement, find strength, practice balance, develop flexibility, and appreciate stillness within a supportive community environment.
Rachel enjoys being outside, traveling, and exploring NC with her husband and dog. She is grateful for the opportunity to further develop and refine her therapeutic teaching style through Dogwood Studio’s internship program.
