(she/her)RYT-200, YKT - 50hr

Finding joy in your body through movement and stillness, is how I describe my relationship with yoga.

I’ve never really enjoyed sports and athletics, but yoga changed that. I found joy in movement and after years of practice, I took my teacher training.

So many of us have such a hard time trying new things – especially when it involves movement – and feeling silly or unsure of what to do can stop us from trying.

When teaching, I try to create that space for you to step out of your comfort zone and embrace falling (safely, of course). Through practice, we build so much more than just muscle memory and strength – we create new pathways in our mind, staying mobile and building longevity. As I always say, practice makes progress, not perfection because the only things that are perfect are puppies!

I describe myself as a macabre bohemian swamp witch, meaning I’m a whimsical romantic who doesn’t take myself too seriously.

Along with teaching, I’m a writer by trade. I love animals, a good cup of coffee and connecting with others. I might be the only yoga teacher who hates the beach and sunshine, but don’t hold that against me.
