    Annie Freedom | Program Visionary & Director

    It has been Annie’s lifelong desire to serve others and improve the planet we inhabit. Annie (with the help of many others along the way) created Samadhi over nine years ago to fulfill this dharma. It is through our joined vision that we have created this outstanding program that consistently transforms lives for the better.

    Establishing a strong yoga teacher training program is an important step to awakening the masses to our own glorious truth. It is Annie’s heartfelt wish that many will not only learn about how to teach profound and transformational yoga classes, but will also discover a deep and powerful awakening in themselves. This, she believes has the power to positively and radically transform the world.
