I'm an RYT-200 yoga teacher, certified SUP yoga teacher, fitness enthusiast and blogger from Chicago. I manage an Instagram account and blog, paddlethecurrent.com, focused on yoga and stand up paddle boarding.  I completed yoga teacher training 6 years ago and SUP yoga training in the summer of 2019.  I absolutely love sharing my knowledge with anyone interested in starting yoga. 

I've focused my yoga teaching on private classes with small groups or individuals and I teach SUP yoga in the summers on Lake Michigan.  I find that many people are intimidated by yoga and don't know where to begin, which is where I come in to ease their anxiety.  My private sessions answer any questions about yoga, yoga poses and taking inventory of what the individual is looking to take away from their practice.  I complete a personal recommendation of poses and short sequences.  Yoga came into my life after a neck injury and continues to sooth my body allowing me to participate in all the other adventures in my life. 

Stand up paddle boarding and running are also a big part of my life.  I own an inflatable paddle board and along with exploring the waters in and around Chicago, I have traveled to many places with my SUP board.  My blog is focused on SUP Yoga, Chicago SUP and SUP travel giving readers tips on where to launch their own boards or find great spots for rentals.  I've participated in many organized runs and find the combination of yoga, running and SUP to compliment one another.  I'm an outdoor and travel enthusiast, as well, which makes me perfect for a travel yoga experience!
