“If your passion does not include
yourself, it is incomplete.”

— Buddha

 

ABOUT

Yoga is what keeps me grounded and feeling connected to myself and the universe.  I took my first yoga class when I was in college in the 1980’s but it wasn’t until 2012 that I committed to a consistent practice and began to fully understand the countless benefits of yoga and how essential it was to my own well being.

After spending over 30 years in a career as an interior designer, and business owner for much of that time, I decided to pursue my dream of becoming a yoga teacher.  My teaching is focused on meditation, yin, slow flow, and restorative practices that strengthen mindfulness and self awareness and challenge us to be our best selves.  In my classes I often offer hands-on Reiki to encourage energy flow and enhance the experience.

I believe that the practice of yoga as mindfulness is accessible to everyone. I am passionate about creating safe and welcoming spaces for anyone looking to explore their practice and experience a deeper connection to the divine within.
