Approachable practices to improve your life.
Improving quality of life
Pure Heart Yogi was founded to help people improve their quality of life through yoga, mediation and mindfulness practices. It is based around an empirical belief of the power of positivity, unity and the growth that yoga instills.
Approachable for all
It’s essential for us that we share the teachings of yoga in a way that is accessible and available to anyone in any setting. Each yoga session is designed to foster insight on how to listen to your mind, body and spirit while living in the present moment.

CAROLENA COLEY, MA, E-RYT 200
Founder of Pure Heart Yogi
I am a licensed clinical counselor and private yoga teacher located in Wilmington, North Carolina. My passion for sharing the practices of yoga through the lens of mental health led to my teacher training through Subtle Yoga in Asheville, NC in 2016. The foundation of my training is in Hatha & Vini Yoga, rooted in safe, trauma informed and therapeutically oriented practices.
I founded Pure Heart Yogi in 2017, because I felt called to help others attain self compassion and emotional wellness through yoga. Being a witness to my client’s processes of connecting to the inner workings of their minds and bodies has been truly amazing! With Pure Heart Yogi you can expect yoga offerings that are accessible, approachable, warm & fun!
In our collaborative work together, m y hope is that you come back to your truest self. We will work together to improve self awareness, change limiting beliefs and learn how to practice self compassion. I look forward to meeting you, learning from you and supporting your journey. Gratitude to you and all that brought you here!
