What can students expect in your class?

Yoga gives me a space to tune out the world around me and an opportunity to learn about myself. Part of my teaching philosophy is sharing that it’s okay to be uncomfortable, and our feelings are always valid. I strive to provide a safe space to explore those feelings, get curious about them, and find comfort in the inevitable discomfort. Curiosity is the first step to learning, whether it’s about you unique anatomy, or exploring your thought patterns. My goal is to share how to take yoga off of our mats. If we can show ourselves love and kindness in yoga, that practice is more likely to be reflected in our lives, and into the lives of those around us.

About Me

I found my love of yoga through hot yoga in 2009, and began teaching in 2014. I completed my RYT 200 & 80 hour YHot in 2012, 70-hour Yin in 2016, and I mentored with the amazing Anila Lacroix & Rachel Scott. I am certified in Prenatal (2020) and Children’s Yoga (2025), and I am now studying biomedical science, physiology, & psychology.
