Gretchen Elizabeth Herring is a certified RYT 200 Yoga Instructor based out of Lorton, VA. She underwent the 200 hour Hatha Yoga Teacher Program at PIES fitness and yoga in Alexandria, VA. She has been teaching ever since graduating in Spring of 2016. Gretchen’s love of Yoga came about when Zweet Sport owners Kimberly and Marja convinced her to try Bikram back in 2011. Needless to say, she has been obsessed ever since! As a teacher, Gretchen’s main objective is to help the student find their own personal connection with their body. Each student is treated with the same amount of gentle persuasion, as she believes we never stop improving, and we always have another level to achieve. In her personal life she is a Wife, a Mother of a lively 2 year old boy, and a member of the Capital MMA and Elite Fitness Lorton family, teaching Yoga out of her studio through the week. Gretchen is thrilled to come back to where her passion began, and to say that she is now a member of the Zweet Sport family as well!
