Dionne C. Monsanto is not your average yoga teacher. She is a native New Yorker who left a successful financial services career twice to become a full-time yoga teacher. She has since taught thousands of yoga/dance classes internationally. Her life after financial services has taken her around the globe teaching, speaking and training. She has appeared on TV, radio, print ads and magazines. As a mental health advocate, public speaker, performer, yoga/dance teacher, and life coach she connects people to their joy and assists her clients in remaining true to themselves.
As a bestselling author and proud mother, she hopes to leave an example that her sons will follow to live happy, healthy lives and to make her deceased daughter proud. On any given day you will find her with a coffee cup or water bottle in her hand while on her way to or from, yoga, cooking, walking or coaching. She leads the way and challenges us to claim joy as our birthright and is the pied piper calling us to live life INjoy.
