Amber Berberich is passionate about yoga and thought it would be wonderful to spread her knowledge and enthusiasm for it to others.

In February, she opened Sat Bhakti Shala TM Yoga Studio & Sattvic Lounge in downtown Muncy.

“I started with yoga at a YWCA in South Carolina,” she said. “I really had a great experience, and from that experience I know this was what I wanted to do.”

She brings different styles of yoga to her customers. Having recently traveled in India, she brings different aspects of the ancient practice than perhaps might be found in many yoga studios.

She said she offers various seminars that incorporate an element of yoga. Her goal is to find which particular style is right for a client. Berberich can introduce the importance of diet, breathing techniques and other aspects of yoga.

She referred to yoga as the bringing together of mind and breath.

“Yoga is all about focusing on breathing and stretching,” she said. “It clears your mind.”

Through yoga, a person can deep connect with themselves. And, it’s good for flexibility and even helps with hormones, she added.

True to her passion, Berberich has conducted yoga retreats in places such as Watkins Glen, New York. She said she’s excited about her new business.

“There are not many studios around here,” she said.

The studio can be found at 1 S. Main St., second Floor, Muncy.

The phone number is 774-454-1727.
