Jenn speaks to Taiwanese Canadian founder Krave Yoga a yoga studied nestled in the heart of Taipei city. Born and raised in Taipei, Angie moved to Canada at the age of 8. The experience of being at the top of your class to suddenly being the student who was illiterate in a new environment taught Angie about resilience from an early age. She shares with us how feeling illiterate in an adopted country is a hard transition, the challenges she experienced, and the role her late grandmother played in her life which shaped her to become who she is today from law to a yoga studio owner.

About Angie Yang

Angie is the founder of Krave Yoga, a boutique studio in Taipei built on a simple belief: helping each person become who they want to be—by keeping them moving, physically and mentally. Her journey into yoga started with a class that felt incredibly hard and intimidating, but by the end, something shifted—her bad mood disappeared, and she realized yoga could transform not just the body, but also the mind. After moving to Taipei and not finding a space that truly felt like “coming home,” she created Krave Yoga: a no-mirrors, no-judgment space where you are welcomed exactly as you are, and supported to keep showing up, growing, and feeling better in your everyday life.
