“We are spirits, having a human experience…”

My love for community and helping those underserved was the catalyst 12 years ago for the creation of a Real Estate Brokerage. This brokerage provides advocacy in gentrifying neighborhoods in Brooklyn NY, Boston MA and Atlanta, GA.  The undertaking is large, and the need is great which quickly lead to burn out. 

During a near break down, a friend (now Mentor & Teacher) invited me to her Restorative Yoga class. I wanted to protest “I prefer the power class, the fast one.  I go the gym every other day!”

But, decided to take her up on the offer.

I cried- sobbed- deeply on the mat. In the stillness, I felt the pain and pressure my heart was carrying. I found liberation in stillness. I was reintroduced to my practice of Yoga and discovered who I was and made room for who I want to grow to be.

It is my souls’ purpose to reintroduce you to yourself.  Mindfully cultivating self-awareness, self-compassion, and holding space for you to “Be Still” are my offerings.

I offer these sessions in private one on one or small group sessions to allow more opportunity to see and be seen. 

I am a Registered Yoga Teacher (RYT) at the 200hr level, with the Yoga Alliance, actively practicing beginning in 2015.  My Teachers and Mentors are Meryl Arnett RYT-500, Octavia Raheem co-owners of Sacred Chill {West} and Nikki Meyers. 

I have completed 300hr Advanced yoga Training and pending upgrade to being a RYT-500. 

I am also certified as a Y12SR (Yoga of 12-Step Recovery) Leader through the founder, Nikki Meyers, Yoga Therapist.

I am a Certified Breath Coach, Gravity Yoga Instructor and currently in my first year of training for Yoga Therapy. 

My teachings include discussions on Yoga principles, philosophies and musings as we practice Breathing (Pranayama), Asana (physical activity) and Meditation.

Restorative, Yin and gentle accessible Flow Yoga are my passions.  I believe “gentle is not always easy” and being more compassionate to ourselves is what we practice in order to begin living in this truth and navigating all dis-ease. 

My practice and teachings also includes weekly community sessions for all levels within a community Warehouse open to the public.
