Meet the Instructors
Detra Bennett-Roberson
Owner & Instructor
Detra is a mom of 2 beautiful children, Nash & Nova and owner of Down Dog Yoga & Wellness.
While attending UNCC Detra enrolled into a breath and movement class where she was introduced to yoga. Each week she looked forward to this class and was eager to learn more. After taking several “gym yoga” classes and “video yoga” classes she took her first class at a studio in 2010. Life as she knew it had changed. 5 years of practicing yoga daily Detra became certified in 2015 via Kim Zegil at Gotta Yoga Charlotte. From there she has been certified in Aerial Yoga and Prenatal Yoga. In 2018 she completed an additional 300hrs in advanced training focusing on mindfulness and meditation with Rolf Gates.
Her classes are fun, creative and powerful moving body with breath, creating space, strength, flexibility, balance, peace, love and understanding. Detra believes when yoga is truly embraced one can become the best version of themselves.
Detra’s mission is to grow yoga in the Denver area and to introduce yoga to those who have never experienced this ancient practice. She loves serving people and giving back to those with fur and skin.
