Like many North American yoga students, I was first drawn to yoga for its physical benefits but its impact on my life off the mat has been much more profound. Studying and integrating the philosophy of Raja yoga has drawn me closer to my authentic self. I'm honoured to be a graduate of Gaiatri Yoga's 200-hour teacher training certification program. I am inspired by a variety of yoga styles and lineages, and especially enjoy sharing yoga with beginners. As the saying goes, "In the beginner's mind, there are infinite possibilities. In the expert's mind, there are few."

Since completing my 200-hour certification, I have also completed Restorative Yoga Teacher Training with the amazing Judith Lasater. I am currently enrolled in a 300-hour Advanced Teacher Training with Gaiatri Yoga. The deeper I get into my studies and practice, the more I feel called to share yoga with others.
