When my local fitness center offered yoga, I jumped at the chance to try.  I was hooked.  After practicing on and off for several years I embarked on the journey of learning.  I received my 200-hour training at Evolution Power Yoga in Lancaster.  Shortly after that I went on to acquire my 300-hour training through Create Karma in Lancaster.  I have since become certified in Yin Yoga from Nectar & Nurture Yoga (Ryah Dekis).   I have become certified in both Chair and Restorative Yoga from Ignite Power Yoga in York.  I find it interesting that the person trained in accounting who avoided biology in college is now spending time learning more about the anatomy and in particular, fascia.  Additionally, I am focusing on comprehending my Ayurveda training to be able to help myself and others.  I continue to take courses online with Yoga International and Yoga Alliance to further my knowledge.I encourage my students to honor their own body and engage to their own personal ability.  I have always wanted yoga to be accessible to everyone.  My flow is slower as I found I need more time to “land” in the pose.  I encourage use of props.  I want students to have fun in the class, too.  I love how the use of a prop can bring a difficult pose into an attainable pose.  I live with my husband, an elderly dog and 2 cats who appeared as kittens on our property.  Besides doing yoga, reading about yoga, learning about yoga, I enjoy reading, gardening, and cooking.  I enjoy being outside and find it refreshes me.
