MEET YOUR PRACTITIONER

Svetlana Parquette, Owner/Founder

Hi! I’m Svetlana.

​

I was first introduced to Yoga & Guided Meditation in 1991 at Kazan, Russia. Upon my relocation to the United States in 1999, I continued training at the Fitness Resource Association in Needham, MA, while still developing and conducting private Yoga, Pilates, Zumba, and Fitness classes at the various locations beginning in 2006.

​

I completed 200 hours of RYT training in 2008, as well as the Silver Sneakers Senior program training and E-RYT 200 with Yoga Alliance. In addition, I completed 300 hours of training at Sacred Rivers Yoga School in Glastonbury, CT in 2013. Later on, I obtained further education through additional coursework in Yoga tailored for seniors, children, and families.

​

To provide a well-rounded Mind, Body, Spirit program, I additionally trained in Tai Chi for Beginners, and Qigong with Supreme Science Qigong Foundation (SSQF), as well as Reiki.

​

I established the Melody Motion Yoga and Wellness Studio in Deep River, CT, and used my training and experience to provide a variety of classes from 2008 through 2013.

Upon relocation to Port Charlotte, FL in 2013, I applied my experience and skills in Personal Training and Fitness in running the Curves franchise between 2013 and 2017. It was an excellent opportunity for me to interact with the local community, and to provide a well-balanced program to the clients to further better their health.

​

Having always been fascinated by the complexity of the human Mind, Body, and Spirit, I attended the Florida Massage Academy in Fort Myers, FL in 2016 to further my understanding of the body’s ability to heal. I am currently integrating various modalities into my health & wellness program which includes teaching Yoga, Qigong, and offering Cranial Sacral Therapy, MPS scar reduction, Reiki as well as Massage sessions, and now Hypnotherapy.

​

I now own Tranquil Mind & Body LLC offering Yoga, Qigong, Massage, Hypnosis, and Energy work, both online and in-person, through private and small group settings in SW Florida, CT, and MA.

​

I am the mother of two daughters, and an energetic grandson, who is a constant inspiration for my Family Yoga program. I look forward to meeting you to help you find inner peace and harmony within.
