E-RYT 500 (2017)

Life is good!  I feel so fortunate to be able to combine my passion for yoga and my love of teaching!  For years, I taught in one capacity or another.  Twelve years ago, I took up yoga.  That changed everything and I’ve never looked back.  

I obtained my 200 hour teacher training certification at Moksha Yoga in Chicago.  In 2013, I earned my 500 hour Advanced Teacher Training at Prairie Yoga in Lisle, IL. For my thesis, I wrote and taught “Yoga for the Pelvic Floor.”  So far, I’ve taught the workshop fifteen times.  

My article, "Yoga for the Pelvic Floor, Kegels are Not Enough!" was published in the November/December 2014 issue of YogaChicago. http://yogachicago.com/2014/11/yoga-for-the-pelvic-floor-kegels-are-not-enough/

I have been teaching yoga for ten years in a style that is meditative, alignment based and utilizing lots of props. My students say I generate a sense of well-being and joy, via a calm and peaceful voice.  To make yoga accessible to people of all abilities, I offer a variety of accommodations.
