I was born in Turkey and raised in the United States. I have been in America for over 35 years and I am 40 years old. I became a us citizen in 2012 and dropped the Ayse part in my name my US name is Ceren Zorlu. I am a certified yoga teacher, certified personal trainer, certified strength and conditioning specialist, youth fitness coach and Ayurveda specialist! I have been practicing yoga for over 20 years. When I started yoga I was not very good at it and I felt stupid going through the different poses . I would judge myself in every way from the first moments of simply taking in a breath to making the om sound , I didn’t understand myself or my movements. I had a vision of what I wanted movements to look like that I didn’t allow myself to feel what the yoga pose feels like. It took me a long time to allow myself to let my body move freely and let each movement take its own shape without thought, effort and judgement. I did not think starting in an oppositional way would 10 years later allow me to become a certified yoga teacher, certified personal trainer and grow as person .
I have completed my associates degree in OS from Swedish institute NY in August 2018. Since graduating I have become a certified nutritionist, certified group fitness instructor, certified yoga teacher and certified personal trainer. I am happy to be certified personal trainer and am learning and growing everyday. I understand there are different energy pathways. I am always learning and I understand i am not always the best however I do know how to get there and get you there to look your best and feel your best! i don’t play sports at this time however I do rollerblade, surf and panel board. When I was five years old I first got introduced to ice skating which did not work out for me so when I got older my parents bought me rollerblades and I really enjoyed rollerblading! Surfing and paddle boarding is something I discovered later in my adult life. I had a late start at a lot aspects of my life and I am so grateful to be here. In my personal life I enjoy watching television, going to live events, reading, learning about different cultures, eating different styles of food, raising my toddler son and chilling with my dog Audi. 2024
