What can students expect from your class? I believe that through Yoga practice, anyone can increase their health and vitality and connect more deeply to their true self, their best self.  In my classes students can expect: passionate and fun instruction, a balance of structure and freedom, and, to leave feeling fantastic!!

Why Yoga? As scholar and athlete, I was devastated at the age of 21 by severe whiplash/concussion.  I was advised by doctors to never play sports again, and was limited in what I could do physically.  After 5 years of chronic back pain, fatigue, depression, headaches and unsuccessful visits to chiropractors, doctors, and physiotherapists, I discovered Yoga. I felt immediately the amazing power of the practice for creating health and vitality.

Inspirations: I'm inspired by the current wave of Yoga that is growing in every part of the world. I'm inspired by millions of people of all ages and backgrounds finding a profound peace, love, and health through this practice. I'm inspired by the bhakti (devotion), to service, to helping each other, that we are cultivating through this movement.
