Ananda Martine DiBenedetto |
 |
| M. Gail Woodard |
We originally met in Santa Barbara, California where each of us was raising a son with Type 1 diabetes. Later we discovered that we were kindred spirits with a passion for yoga and a desire to make a difference in the lives of others.
Ananda Martine, who was a pediatric nurse in her native France, is an artist, the mother of two sons and now teaches Yoga and Aqua Yoga Dancing in Prescott, Arizona.
Gail, a Yale University MBA graduate and corporate consultant turned home-schooling mom, is a real estate agent and Yoga teacher in southern Arizona. She has three sons.
Our complimentary creative, healing and business backgrounds nurtured the birth of HatBox Journeys in 2004.
