Meet our team
Meet the owners, Haley & Brandyn Clemens
Welcome! We are so happy that you are here.
We have been married since October 10, 2020. While planning and preparing for our wedding during the beginning of the COVID-19 Pandemic, we learned that we are both fueled by creating, envisioning, and connecting with one another through common goals. We transformed a meaningful, sacred family property into our dream wedding venue. Since then, we have been on many more adventures, including parenting two amazing kids, and we can't wait to start this new adventure with Ananda Yoga & Events Center!
Our values:
Love for People and Community
Holistic Well-being
Environment
Service to Others
Integrity
"ANANDA" means supreme bliss or divine joy in the Sanskrit language.
We have experienced our fair share of difficulties and challenges. And, we have learned that we can have joy in the midst of pain.
We hope that whether you are joining us in our yoga classes, wellness events, or special occasions, you experience pure joy.
