About Us

Hello, friend.  I’m so glad you’re here.  I’m Ann Richmond, wife of one amazing man and mother of six beautiful children.  I’m also a yoga certified instructor and founder of MommYoga.

I specialize in yoga for women, and I created this site especially with women and mothers in mind.  Though the yoga featured on this site is suitabable for both men and women, it is designed particularly for women.  Women face a unique set of challenges and gifts, and the yoga found here is designed to alleviate and accentuate those unique things.

This site once began as a site for podcasts for women of all ages. Sadly, I found that it took a great deal of time away from my children. Motherhood is my greatest joy. So, for now, the podcasting part of our site is not continuing. However, there are many other exciting changes coming to MommYoga.

When we first began, we had no idea what the impact and experience of MommYoga would be. Thanks to many loving and kind supporters, MommYoga has grown and spread in ways we could not have foreseen. This has been thrilling. As a result, over the next couple of years, the MommYoga line will be reborn, and we can’t wait to see the results. We’ll keep you posted on this site.

MommYoga also supports women around the world, largely through Yoga for Congo Women. This is a cause very dear to our hearts, and we hope you’ll take a minute to visit and see what it is all about.

I have a great love for women and mothers.  They shape and change the world in their gentle, loving, and unique ways.  Being one of you, in a very real life, I share in your joy and in your pain.  Combined with my faith, yoga has blessed me in ways that are tremendous.  I want to share that with you.  Perhaps it can bless you, as it has blessed me.

As Sarah Ban Breathnach has said,

“May I come in?  Come in to your mind, heart, and home for a little while?”

I know we’ll be great friends.
