My enchantment with yoga began more than 3 decades ago.  Always an athlete, I’d never felt “embodied” in the way I did for a brief, shining moment or two my first day in that class at the local Y.  Curious and hungry for more, I deepened my study and personal exploration. The practice that engaged first my body, has come to fascinate my mind and ignite my spirit.  My adventure continues - and the deeper I feel my way into the practice and lifestyle of yoga, the richer is my world. 

One of my aims as a teacher is to support you in discovering and sustaining a personal home practice.   Developing the spark to show up for ourselves, by ourselves - this is truly where yoga’s magic happens.  We access our own inner voice.  We learn to follow our own inner authority.  We become our own healer. 

I have specialty training in trauma-informed yoga, yoga for chronic pain, and in using yoga to prevent and help people recover from body dysmorphia and eating disorders.

Through yoga, we can become present to our own fundamental goodness and the
goodness of others.
