Carla Howe Ruffo
Carla Howe Ruffo aims to spread joy and connection with others through a holistic approach to sustainable health and wellness. She is the owner of Potion Place Yoga + Botanicals, a dream she's held since the third grade.
On the yoga mat, Carla specializes in vinyasa and gentle flow classes that incorporate meditation and breathwork--and that are accessible for anyone whether an experienced yogi or just beginning a yoga journey. Off the mat, she cultivates well-being through her botanicals line. She mixes essential oils to evoke feelings of calm, joy, energy, and coziness. She grows organic herbs such as lavender, sage, and chamomile to create wellness products like eye pillows, teas, and bath salts, supporting an overall self-care approach to every day.
Carla, a 500-hour Registered Yoga Teacher, first found yoga in the late 1990’s through Rodney Yee’s instructional videos. Decades later, after her father’s passing and a chronic health diagnosis, she found a steady practice in Morgantown, West Virginia, that ultimately led her to Suncrest Yoga’s teacher training program under Nicole Yost Ross—a journey that changed her life through routine practice, strong friendships, and her 200-hr teaching credential! In 2024, her yoga dreams came full circle when she studied under Rodney Yee and Colleen Saidman Yee to earn her 300-hour advanced yoga teaching credential.
