Emily Wey

Emily's "adulting" job is working as a lawyer, arbitrator, and mediator, focusing on health care law and issues that affect how health core is delivered and paid for in the U.S. But Emily's passion has always been health and fitness outside the practice of law. From playing rugby and rowing crew in college to taking up distance running to balance the stress of a legal career, Emily's need to move has been a constant. She began practicing yoga after moving bock to Denver in 2012, and credits her practice with helping her recover from a major accident; Emily was hit and run over by o pickup truck while out for a morning run in 2008. Moving through 20+ surgeries and rehab periods over the post l0 years, Emily has fully recovered to do a Tough Mudder {among other things) but has shifted her primary focus to the meditative benefits of yoga - not to mention the phenomenal fully body workout that it provides. Emily utilizes her experience with recovering from significant injury, as well as her career opportunities as a mentor, speaker, and resolver of disputes, to connect with and support other yogis in the growth of their unique and individual practices.
