I design my restorative classes based on knowledge I have from yogic philosophies, ancient wisdoms, neuroscience, and my training as a massage therapist and craniosacral therapy practitioner. My intention is to create a space for students to come to rest, release tension and hopefully initiate a new conversation within and between their bodies and mind. I believe some of the most profound teachings comes from a space of deep listening to our body’s innate wisdom. Brining ourselves into a space of deep stillness allows for new possibilities in our lives to emerge.

Make your yoga practice uniquely yours, every time you get on the mat. Two quotes that summarize this beautifully : 1) “While not all yoga classes are made for all bodies, all bodies are absolutely made to experience yoga.” -Dianne Bondy. 2) “We don’t use our bodies to get into a pose, we use a pose to get into our bodies.” -Unknown. So, use props to help support your body through a pose, skip a vinyasa or if the pose is not right for you at that moment then change it. Let this practice feel good, it will keep you coming back for more.

Savasana. It’s the one pose all styles have in common and an important time for integration. I also love Yoga Nidra, which is traditionally done in savasana!

You can find me juggling somewhere, roller skating, being out in nature (ocean, hiking, parks…), or with my family and friends.
