Becca Franklin (901) 219-1262 or beccafranklin@gmail.com)
Becca came to her first yoga class at Eastern Sun in 2002 on a whim and has been studying with Lou since 2003. After graduating from Rhodes in 2004 with a Bachelor's in International Studies, Becca found corporate success, but not happiness. She increasingly turned to her daily yoga practice for support through health issues, career struggles, and divorce. With yoga, Becca has found a way to be more gentle with herself and others. She began teacher training with Lou in 2007 and teaching at Eastern Sun in 2008. Becca has a special interest in yoga for women's issues.
