As the founder of NeurHeart Yoga, I bring a unique blend of medical expertise and personal healing experience to my trauma-informed yoga practice. With over a decade as a diagnostic medical sonographer, I developed an intimate understanding of the human body's intricate systems, particularly cardiovascular function.

My journey transformed dramatically after experiencing a stroke followed by heart surgery, which led to PTSD. These life-altering events pushed me to leave hospital work and seek healing through yoga. What began as personal recovery evolved into a profound calling.

Today, as a Registered Yoga Teacher (RYS) with Yoga Alliance, I specialize in neurologically-focused and trauma-informed yoga approaches that bridge conventional medicine with holistic practices. My teaching integrates scientific understanding of the nervous system with compassionate breathwork and adaptive movement.

NeurHeart Yoga emerged from my conviction that healing happens when we honor both medical science and the body's innate wisdom. Whether you're recovering from medical trauma, managing stress, or seeking to restore your nervous system, I offer a unique perspective as someone who has walked this path.

My approach combines evidence-based techniques with authentic compassion, creating a safe space for your healing journey. I look forward to supporting you in discovering the powerful connection between your neurological health and heart wellness through the transformative practice of yoga.
