What should students expect from your class?
My classes are designed to leave you feeling grounded and empowered – expect to sweat, explore inversions and be challenged all within a traditional meditative framework.
About Me
Drawing from my intimate relationship with the Ashtanga Vinyasa tradition and the teachings of Shri Krishnamacharya, I enrich my classes with pranayama, meditation and stories from the history and philosophy of Yoga. Several years of employment as a social worker for homeless shelters had left me depleted and merely aiming to get through another day. Yoga was part of my reboot plan to ‘live without dead time’ and after just one vinyasa class I committed to a daily practice. Ultimately, Yoga helped me break free from a long and problematic relationship with alcohol and it continues to serve as a reminder of the power in simple presence.
I am an E-RYT-200 Yoga Alliance registered teacher with over 2000 hours of teaching experience and over 500 hours in training. I have studied traditional vinyasa and the Yoga Sutras with Srivatsa Ramaswami, a direct student of Shri Krishnamacharya. I am also an Ayurvedic Yoga Specialist through the Himalayan Institute, I hold an MA in Philosophy and am currently pursuing a second MA, studying Sanskrit and the evolving status of Yoga in the contemporary world.
