I have always enjoyed fitness and movement! I danced and ran track in high school and was introduced to Yoga in my late teens. My practice began in the Ashtanga lineage, which I still dabble in from time to time. It didn’t take long for me to discover that the practice was not only good for lengthening and strengthening the muscular system, but also provided a sense of balance and calm throughout my life. After years of reaping the benefits of yoga I felt the desire to give back and to share yoga with others through teaching. Today, I teach many different styles of Yoga, ranging from Beginners to Power. In whatever style I am teaching, I aim to cultivate a space that empowers students to grow in the practice by fostering a nurturing environment. I encourage playfulness, authenticity, and enjoyment as each student explores and creates their individual practice and experience. I believe passionately in yoga’s ability to unite mind, body and spirit and improve relationships. I love to combine energetic forms of yoga such as Flow and Vinyasa with quieter practices of Yin and Restorative, for a well-rounded class.
