In 2016, I realized that my job did not fulfill me and that corporate life was no longer for me. I wanted to find more purpose in my work life. With this clarity, my priorities shifted to a life that brought me joy, let me be authentically me and share the gifts I have been given in life.
I believe that yoga should be inclusive. I welcome all ethnicities, gender identities, religions, race, differently abled people, people who can’t touch their toes. If I missed a group, you are welcome too.
I have been practicing yoga since 2004. Through good and bad times, yoga has enhanced my life. Breath is the most important part of yoga class. Connecting with the breath and life force helps each person stay focused and reduce stress. I enjoy practicing and teaching many styles of yoga: Ashtanga, Slow Flow, Basic Yoga and Yoga for Kids.
I believe in meeting student’s where they are at the time of the class. My classes have a safe and nurturing environment where students are free to express themselves and take a pose that most nurtures their body. I believe that helping people find focus and breath on the mat, helps them to deal with life off the mat. I found taking yoga off the mat helped me in all aspects of life; personal and professional.
