Serenity Tedesco is a published writer, social justice activist, transformational life coach, and scholar-practitioner of the yoga traditions. She earned her Master of Arts in Yoga Studies at Loyola Marymount University where she completed research focused on philosophy, emotional psychology, and its effects on modern transnational yoga culture. She specializes in practical wisdom that engages with society, ignites embodied experience as a practice, and embraces emotion as a compass for self-study (svadhyaya). She has written on topics of identity, emotion, spiritual bypass, capitalism, colonialism, and racial inclusion.
Serenity was introduced to yoga as a child on the foothills of mountains in South Korea. Eastern spirituality was the backdrop of her life; she grew up in a family of natural healers, philosophers, and religious scholars. She also lived in India from 2010-2011, where she immersed herself in Yoga, Jain, Hindu, Sindhi, and Tibetan Buddhist cultures and practices. She lectures at universities, yoga studios, transformation festivals, and educational events, and workshops, and works as a consultant for fellow yoga teachers, scholars, and conscious entrepreneurs.
