Like so many, I was on a search for a happier, more meaningful life. I discovered yoga and meditation in 2006, and the practices have changed my life---now, it is such a joy and honor to share the gift of yoga with others. I became a certified yoga instructor in 2008, and currently teach more than 100 students each week at various yoga studios, health clubs, parks, and offices in Florida. I have experience with students of all levels, from first timers to more advanced practitioners to those with specific conditions. I have designed and led various workshops, including Rhythm & Bliss, a fluid movement and dance experience; the self-esteem-boosting workshop titled “I love Me” with NYC Power instructor Jason Moriarty; and Inspired, a yoga, meditation, and creative writing workshop series. My classes have been featured in multiple regional newspapers and magazines, such as Tampa Bay Illustrated, tbt and Tampa Bay Times Magazine. I also have extensive experience studying and leading mindfulness meditation and Tai Chi.
