| I am an Experienced Registered Yoga Teacher (E-RYT) with the Yoga Alliance, and I have been teaching yoga for ten years and practicing for over fifteen. I received my 200 hour certification through Integrative Yoga Therapy with Joseph Le Page. In addition, I am certified in Core Strength Vinyasa Yoga with Sadie Nardini and I continue to train and study with Sadie. I have also had the honor of studying with Tom Gillette, Ame Wren, Paul Grilley, Shiva Rea, and Leslie Kaminoff, all who have inspired my teaching. Having a degree in psychology, I fuse together both my academic and yoga studies in creating yoga classes that are therapeutic as well as challenging, with an emphasis on stress relief, health, and healing. |

| My teaching style takes an individualized approach which considers the unique needs of each student. Inquiring if there are special requests, observing the energy level of the class as a whole, or considering the time of day and season, evolve into a creative, unfolding theme as we begin to flow through yoga postures. Modifications of yoga postures are always offered so students may have a safe and enjoyable experience. Students are also encouraged to intuitively flow at a comfortable pace and listen to their body. In my classes, you will discover muscles you never knew you had by bringing freedom to your body through deep stretching and safely using your own body’s weight in building strength. As the body and mind become connected together through breath and movement, you will feel energized yet relaxed, with a sense of joy and liberation in your spirit. |
