About Adell Bridges Books
Adell Bridges's childhood was spent training and competing as a gymnast, where even then she was referred to as a "more elegant than powerful" gymnast. Bendy rather than strong was how she would always describe her movement abilities. At age 19, Adell moved to Wales, where she studied in psychology and later received a master's degree in creative writing. Like many graduates, Adell spent several years bouncing from job to job and feeling generally unfulfilled and uncertain of her purpose. When she discovered yoga at age 28, everything changed. Taking her foundation teacher training near Dharamsala, India, Adell went on to travel to more than 30 countries, teaching and sharing her love of yoga, and continuing to train and learn about anatomy and biomechanics, a subject for which she feels an unquenchable thirst. Adell says her job isn't to tell others what to do, but to educate others so they know what to do themselves. Her vision behind everything that she shares is to encourage deeper understanding of the self. She believes that by encouraging each individual to understand their own unique experience of movement, breathing, and living in general, the student becomes their own teacher.
