My goal in teaching yoga is to help students approach their practice with curiosity and acceptance, to develop better self-awareness, confidence, improved focus and concentration. I believe each person has unlimited potential that can be unveiled in the practice of yoga which is a very personal path for each individual.

My teaching style has evolved from Hatha and Vinyasa to trauma informed which includes creating a safe space for all students to practice yoga in a welcoming atmosphere. My priority is my student's understanding of their own bodies and assisting them in finding an effective class that meets them where they are at.

Some of my long term clients include those with fibromyalgia, MS, autism, lupus and recovery from drug abuse and sex trafficking. I continue to learn much from my own students and consider myself a life-long learner on and off the mat.

I am a student of life and continue to grow deeper in my practice of yoga physically, emotionally, and offer spiritual guidance to students who are seeking. I have experienced the busy-ness and stress of corporate and family life and bring to my students practical ways to find balance, strength and better understanding of themselves so they can reach their fullest potential.
