i became a yoga teacher in 2014 after studying with Tribe Yoga in austria and received my second (5oo hour) certificate from The Shala Yoga House and Now Yoga in 2016.

after years of experimenting with all different styles of yoga classes, i was introduced to the mysore room. leaving behind the distractions of music, ever-changing sequencing and even the teacher’s guiding voice, i was challenged to be independent in my practice. i had to memorize the sequence, i had to develop discipline and learn to face my own aversions within practice.

in 2015, i made my first trip to mysore, india to study with Saraswathi Jois. i returned to india in 2019 to study with Sharath Jois and continue to return, yearly. i maintain a six-day per week (with the exception of moon days) asana practice and daily meditation practice. i know that i will always be a student and remain eager to learn more from my own inquiry as well as through studying with my teachers and other experts. i am always looking for new information that i can share with my students.

my practice continues to amaze me and reveal possibilities i could never imagine. i am filled with gratitude for my teachers Barbara Verrochi and Kristin Leigh.

for information on my group classes, check out the class description page.  i also work with clients who have specific concerns including pregnancy, seniors, beginners, athletes and mild injuries. i can tailor classes to all levels, ages and interests. i would love to practice with you.
