I LOVE to sweat! My own personal workouts vary from cycling to running, yoga to bootcamp and everything in between.  I'm now training for my first triathalon...but my main passion is yoga!  I currently teach a power yoga flow, a hot yoga flow and a spin & flow(30 cycle, 30 yoga) each week, as well as, private sessions.  I've ran half marathons and ran my first full marathon a couple years ago!  I played basketball in college and haven't stopped sweating since.  I've been teaching yoga for almost two and a half years and plan to deepen my own personal practice, as well as my teaching, by attendinga a RYT 200 hour training in Bali of November 2014!

Exercise and sweating helps me to slow down(even within the movement and faster pace), let go and escape.  I love the adrenaline rush and often jam to great music!  The spiritual aspect of yoga is very interesting and soothing to me and I am continuing to work on my meditation practice.  I'm an Exercise Science major, Licensed Massage Therapist, Strength & Conditioning Specialist and a Health and Wellness Coach...fitness and wellness are my life!  I'm extremely passionate about giving people the tools they need to take control of their health and wellbeing; to make the self(body and mind) a priority!
