What should students expect from your class?
An athletic and alignment-driven practice that will encourage you to tune in your awareness from the ground up.
About Me
I attended my first hot yoga class in fourth year university on a dare and was promptly hooked. Right away I started a 40-day challenge which inspired an early interest in teaching. In 2012, I completed a 200-hour training at the Absolute Yoga Academy in Koh Samui, Thailand, and began teaching hot yoga in Shanghai, China, where I was privileged to work with a diverse group of students and teachers from around the globe. Since those early days, I’ve taught a variety of yoga styles, from the traditional 26-posture hot yoga sequence and those developed by Absolute Yoga and YYOGA to freestyle flow, power, and deep stretch sequences. Personally what I enjoy is helping students find their “Aha!” moments—the small shifts in technique, alignment, or attitude that move them further into their practice on and off the mat.
