Yoga, for me, is a transformative practice that integrally stretches and strengthens my body, mind and spirit. As a devoted practitioner since attending my first class, it is a joy to now share this practice with others. I have always been committed to physical, mental and spiritual wellness and self-awareness, and appreciate that yoga so integrally cultivates these in one discipline of grace. I see yoga as an opportunity to become aware of and attend to oneself-to strengths and weaknesses, growth and limitations, injuries and healing-and to nurture patience, peace and gratitude both on and off the yoga mat.

As a teacher I enjoy creating a safe and yet challenging space for this holistic exploration and growth. I was first drawn to the graceful and powerful movements of vinyasa flow and my classes weave these elements with a focus on breath mindfulness and intention. My aim is for students to listen to themselves as they cultivate strength, grace, freedom, gratitude, intention, and relaxation.

I continue to learn and grow in my understanding of yoga through my own practice, and various workshops and classes. Yoga, I find, cultivates a lifestyle of gratitude, calmness and focus for the mind, strength and healing for the body, and inspiration and endurance for the spirit. I aspire to nurture these qualities in students.
