History

Established in 2012.

A serendipitous layoff in 2011 led former corporate marketing professional Vanya Francis to join forces with long time yoga instructor Shavonna Sumlin to pursue their mutual passion for yoga and wellness. A part-​time interest became full-​time resulting in the birth of Om Point Yoga + Wellness. In addition to being certified yoga instructors both owners of Om Point Yoga are health and wellness professionals. Shavonna Sumlin received her masters in Occupational Therapy from the University of Southern California bringing a medical viewpoint to yoga and fitness. Vanya Francis is currently on track to become a Certified Holistic Health Coach from the Institute of Integrative Nutrition in fall 2013.
