About the Founder

Michelle Loveless (she/they), a queer spiritual health and wellness guide, is a 500-hour registered yoga teacher and trauma-informed yoga instructor specializing in Kundalini Yoga to support deep healing and transformation. With compassionate guidance, she facilitates movement, breathwork, restorative practices, and deep reflection, helping individuals discover their own paths of self-healing.

Michelle’s journey is a testament to the power of yoga. For over two decades, she has navigated toxic relationships and addiction, finding solace and wisdom on and off the mat. Their dedication to this practice is evident in the countless hours spent honing the craft of yoga.

For the last six years, Michelle has immersed herself in the study of Kundalini Yoga, a practice that played a pivotal role in overcoming alcohol addiction.

In her 40s, Michelle realized she wasn’t living authentically. Through Kundalini’s practices of chanting, breathwork, and energy movement, she uncovered buried childhood traumas and committed to breaking cycles of self-sabotage. With over four years of sobriety, Michelle continues her journey of self-discovery, using yoga to unravel the roots of self-destructive patterns.

As CEO of Outshine Yoga, Michelle shares their healing journey with others. Through workshops, classes, and rebirthing ceremonies, she guides individuals toward personal and spiritual growth, advocating for radical childhood healing and self-study.

Michelle’s story is one of resilience and reinvention. From a high school dropout to earning a master’s in educational leadership, she credits yoga as the foundation for their fulfilling and adventurous life.

As a perpetual student of life, Michelle continues to embrace healing and invites others to join this journey of wonder and self-discovery.
