In the beginning of establishing a routine physical practice, I did not seek yoga. YOGA found me; the first time was back in 1994. Each occasion spent on the mat, I learned valuable lessons about myself and my body. Unlike any other form of “exercise”, the relaxation and contentment I felt after a yoga class was gratifying. I enjoy sharing the profound benefits that yoga and breath work offer. My personal teaching philosophy is that YOGA is for everyone and every – body. In all of my classes, I hold space for students to unabashedly practice self-care in a nurturing, supportive community.
