In my classes I aspire to create an environment of healing through an artful blend of poses that transition intuitively while centering in the heart, connected with the breath and using a sensitive touch during adjustments.

My mission is to inspire my students to become more compassionate towards themselves and others by stirring in them a curiosity about how the emotional, mental and physical are interconnected and how yoga can help to create ripples of change throughout mind, body and spirit drawing them back towards our true nature of contentment and joy.

My classes offer Meditation, Mudra, Mantra, Pranayama, as well as story telling during guided Asana play. I hope you’ll join me?

My first yoga class took place at a teacher training I decided to attend after a call from my sister in which she told me; “I think this is your calling”. So I moved back home to LA from the east coast because I had never heard such conviction in my sister’s voice before. It was my chrysalis.

I completed my 200hr in 2002 and began teaching right away. In fact we would teach together sometimes, one walking the room offering adjustments the other leading from the front of the room and we would often switch. My family and I made the move to the Seattle area in 2007 and I completed my 500hr training in 2012. I will always be a student of yoga!

I also studied Physical Therapy at Mt. Saint Mary’s University,  PTA 1998
Massage Therapy at North Eastern Institute of Whole Health, LMP 2000
And Shaman studies at Sundust Oracle Institute under Char Sundust 2017-18
