Arielle Schmidt

Arielle graduated from South Dakota State University with a Bachelor’s in Health, Physical Education and Recreation. She fell in love with yoga during her time there and leaned on my practice to keep positive and balanced as she worked as a corrections officer in the county jail. She continued her work as a corrections officer when she moved to Cincinnati and it made her realize the importance of how yoga was able to keep her true to the person she wanted to be.

​

She trained with the Cincinnati Yoga School through India to immerse herself in her yoga training and again in Bali. She also received her SomaVeda® Thai Yoga Therapy Practitioner Certification in Costa Rica and continued her education at the SomaVeda® Thai Yoga Center in Brooksville, Florida. Through her trainings she has learned how to use the whole person to treat the whole person.

​

After returning from India in January 2017 she had a fire to really achieve her true passion of having her own private studio to share her work with others. In October 2017 she opened Tranquility Rising located in Blue Ash, Ohio and walked away from her job as a corrections officer in February 2018.

After the transition she was able to dive deeper into her work with my clients and also her trainings. She have since been to Brussels to train with Jo Phee for Traditional Chinese Medicine, completed her 300 Hour Teacher Training in Bali in 2020 and she is currently cultivating trainings & retreats to bring to other cities outside of Cincinnati. She could not be happier to bring her offerings to everyone and now to spark someones else's journey with being a co-author of Phoenix Style: stories to ignite your entrepreneurial spirit.
