About Me
As an enthusiastic contemporary Certified Pilates Instructor, and Hatha and restorative trained Yoga Teacher, I am passionate about sharing the importance of connecting mindful movement with conscious breath in a playful, creative and practical way that offsets the daily hustle.
I originally started practicing yoga 20 years ago as a means to burn calories and tone muscles, but I quickly experienced the power it had on calming my active mind. I noticed a shift in the way that I felt. Instead of pushing myself to exercise harder, I became friends with my body. And, for the first time, I was encouraged to LISTEN.
In an effort to deepen my practice, I signed up and completed a 200-hour certification. My approach to movement is supportive and light-hearted with the intention of guiding students through a journey and helping them find a connection between their mind, body and breath. I am known for curating intelligent sequences with an awesome playlist while inspiring participants to challenge their strength and balance. With a trauma-informed approach, I create a safe environment where people can surrender into a state of physical relaxation to let go of mental clutter and self-judgment.
