I have been practicing yoga to some extent for more than half my life and my relationship with the practice has been ever evolving. Each year, I find there is some new way to approach my practice and teaching. I believe that yoga can be an incredible training ground for how to optimally use our bodies in our daily lives. In this multifaceted practice, we have the ability to rewire our physical and mental patternings through careful attention and intention. My public classes are a blend of traditional asana from my years of teaching vinyasa yoga and practicing Iyengar, but may have some myofascial release or mindful muscle activation or some other surprises sprinkled in. I love to challenge and restore our bodies in ways that are both expected and unexpected – variety is the spice of life, especially when it comes to how we move.

After years of teaching yoga, I turned to massage to deepen my understanding of the human body and expand the way I’m able to help my clients. With my private yoga and massage clients, I have the opportunity to work in a more focused way, targeting clients’ specific needs to help rewire their patterns to reduce chronic pain or move with more efficiency and ease. I am currently finishing up my second 300HR training, this time with Yoga Medicine to become a Yoga Therapeutic Specialist.

I teach yoga and do bodywork because I love these incredible, multi-dimensional practices but more importantly because I love connecting with my students and clients to help them feel and move better in their bodies.

Welcoming! I take the time to talk to my clients before their first session. I do a bit of posture analysis and ask questions about how they use their body in work and life now and in the past.

I feel like so few people book Thai massages because they have no idea what it is! It's so different from the Western approach to massage and bodywork. ⁠⠀

In Thai massage you are clothed (something comfy) and on the floor on a big, cushy mat. The massage therapist uses acupressure points and moves your body through a series of stretches and mobilization exercises (it's sometimes called "yoga for lazy people.") I find my clients are often hesitant to book a Thai session because of the unknown and once they try it, they are hooked!⁠⠀
