I recently completed my 200 ryt through Yogafit.  Yogafit stresses alignment and a strong understanding of anatomy as a way to teach beginners and advanced students safely.  I teach Vinyasa style and offer many modifications to encourage students to practice at their level.  Teaching at the Y has helped me to include the student who is just walking in the door for the first time and the student who has been coming for years and needs a challenge.  

As I mentioned earlier I am a teacher of art by day and have been at Walden School in Louisville for the past 11 years.  Teaching yoga feels natural to me because I have a strong background in teaching and understand how to break down down information into understandable increments.  I talk students through every pose, using inclusive language.  I am known for my guided relaxation at the end of my class .  The goal of my yoga classes is  to have each student leave the class feeling strong, relaxed and amazing about themselves.
