Svetlana Parquette

Svetlana Parquette, LMT (MA#88118, CT #11074), is a Registered Yoga Teacher (E-RYT500) with Yoga Alliance. Svetlana’s journey is a testament to the power of mindfulness and traditional practices in achieving a harmonious work-life balance. After spending a decade in the high-pressure corporate world, she discovered the calming effects of Yoga and Qigong. These ancient disciplines not only helped her manage stress but also brought a sense of inner peace that permeated all aspects of her life.

To offer a well-rounded Mind, Body, Spirit program, Svetlana further trained in Tai Chi for Beginners and Qi Gong with the Supreme Science Qigong Foundation, as well as Reiki. She established the Melody Motion Yoga and Wellness Studio in Deep River, CT, where she utilized her training and experience to provide a variety of classes from 2008 to 2013.

Upon relocating to Port Charlotte, FL, in 2013, Svetlana applied her skills in Personal Training and Fitness by managing the Curves franchise until 2017. This role allowed her to interact with the local community and offer a well-balanced program to enhance clients' health.

Always fascinated by the complexity of the human Mind, Body, and Spirit, Svetlana attended the Florida Massage Academy in Fort Myers, FL, in 2016 to deepen her understanding of the body’s ability to heal. She is currently integrating various modalities into her health and wellness program, which includes teaching Yoga, Qigong, workshops, and offering Reiki and Massage sessions in both Florida and Connecticut.

Svetlana is a mother of two daughters and an energetic grandmother, who are a constant inspiration for her Family Yoga program. She is well-known locally for her gentle spirit and effective methods of instruction.
