Beyond the Mat
In addition to teaching yoga, Lindsay Perkin (formerly Wassell) is a mother, entrepreneur, immigrant, and student. Lindsay’s greatest honor is the gift of raising her twins, now teenagers. As an entrepreneur, she continues to serve as President & Founder of Keyphraseology, the Digital Marketing agency she founded in 2009. Lindsay and her children reside in the Tampa, Florida area and make annual visits to her home in the Pacific Northwest, specifically beautiful Victoria, British Columbia, Canada, where she was born and raised. Her love for lifelong learning extends beyond the mat as a student of the School of Environment & Sustainability at Royal Roads where she pursues her passions with coursework such as Environmental Ethics and Indigenous Ways of Knowing.
