Certified Yoga Instructor- RYT 200

My yoga journey started in 2007 when I began private lessons seeking a way to safely bring physical exercise into my life.  At that time, I was experiencing chronic back issues related to several back injuries and progressive degenerative changes.

 As a result of my regular practice, I began to notice physical improvements including increased energy, strength, flexibility, and muscle tone.  Additionally, my back health improved, as I experienced better ability to move with less episodes of re-injury.

 As my relationship with yoga continued to grow, I witnessed many other positive changes in my personal life. I discovered that the benefits of yoga extend beyond physical improvements, and actually provide a platform for overall wellbeing that includes the mind, body, and spirit.  I experienced more balance in my life, a greater sense of wellness, and much better management of stress. For me, my introduction to yoga was truly a life changing experience that continues to this day.

 As a regular yoga student, I sought to deepen my personal practice, so I enrolled in the teacher training program offered at Serenity Stream. As my journey with yoga continued, I felt called to bring the knowledge and experience I gained from my mentors and personal practice to my community.  It is my hope that I can help others benefit from the practice of Hatha yoga as I have.

 I strive to offer a well-rounded class experience designed to strengthen and improve over-all flexibility while maintaining careful attention to alignment in a nurturing and supportive environment.
