Rachel and Hannah Healy

Founders Yoga Mara, Health and Wellness Advocates

Galway sisters and qualified yoga instructors, Rachel & Hannah Healy, are founders of Yoga Mara, a new health and wellness initiative. 

Yoga Mara is aimed at helping individuals and groups escape from the stresses of everyday life while looking after your physical and mental wellbeing. After running their first Yoga Mara Escape in Ballyconneely, Connemara in August 2018, Rachel and Hannah knew they had found something worth pursuing. Rachel left her full-time role as a primary school teacher and Hannah left her event management and marketing job in Dublin making the bold move home to the west to pursue their passion. Coming from two drastically different backgrounds, the two sisters have created a lovely marriage between both skillsets to bring a lovely balance of Yin and Yang to their business.
