Be One Yoga Studio

I literally stumbled into yoga on the suggestion of my roommate almost 20 years ago. My first experience was the 90 minute Bikram series. Once I got over the initial shock to my system of the intense heat and structure, I began to appreciate the physical demands and the mental focus the practice required. After years of competitive athletic my body needed something to help heal the strained muscles and pumps and bruises, if I wanted to remain active. I have used yoga to help me heal and recover from being bulldozed in a hockey game, from car accidents, and from knee, hernia and heart surgeries. I worked in the hospitality industry for 30 years and yoga and my mat were and are places I come to decompress and find place to my life.I am a registered with Yoga Alliance and have certifications in Hatha, Vinyasa and Yin. I have studied with Ali Valdez, Daniaelle Zissou, Piper S, Les Levithal, Jason Crandell, Tiffany Cruikshank, Amy Ippoliti, as well as other local teachers.I love teaching classes geared to the students needs that are challenging yet accessible. I want students to find something in every class they take out it, whether it be breathe the work, the alignment, a new posture, an inner piece or just a smile.
