Her story
For Heather, practice begins with noticing. In explaining the name Red Skies Yoga, she describes learning when to press forward and when to yield—making room for strength, patience and change.
She founded Red Skies Yoga in Jacksonville in 2017. Today, she teaches alongside an experienced, deeply connected community and leads the studio’s 200-hour teacher training.
Her work also includes Guardian Title & Trust, the Florida title agency she founded in 2006. As founder, owner, escrow and title agent, Heather brings years of hands-on experience to the business.

In Heather’s words
The name began with an old sailor’s proverb. Over time, Heather explains, it grew to hold more.
The body does not arrive on the mat the same way twice. Some days the practice calls for strength and challenge; others for patience, stillness and release. With time, we learn to read the weather inside the body - to know when to press forward, when to yield and what is asking to be honored.Over the years, the name has grown to hold another layer of meaning. Red reflects the root chakra - grounding, stability and belonging - while the sky represents openness, possibility and freedom. Together, they express the balance at the heart of practice: deeply rooted, we rise. Grounded in flight.
Teaching
Heather leads the 200-hour teacher training at Red Skies Yoga, sharing a practice that began in 1995. Her teaching is part of the studio community she has built in Jacksonville.
