About me

About meI’ve been called an innovator and a facilitator of deep holistic healing. I teach a breath-based, mindful practice, taking students beyond asana into the deeper dimensions of traditional Yoga that is YOGA FOR LIFE, a vehicle for personal transformation.
As a trauma survivor, I am passionate about working with individuals healing from trauma to provide them a safe, non-judgmental avenue to heal themselves . Sliding scale payment is available for trauma survivors.  

My Philosophy of CareMy philosophy of care is to see people as they are and how they are, and whatever happens, happens.
I believe in the therapeutic benefits of Yoga+breathwork+meditation properly applied to the individual.

What You Can Expect On Your First VisitListening.
Care.
Compassion.
Try one class with me and discover how easy, mindful breathing can ease your body and mind and change your life.

My InspirationI had shoulder surgery in the mid-1990s and I remembered how Yoga benefited my body, mind, and spirit when I was first introduced to it in the 1970s. Returning to a gentle yoga practice helped my shoulder tremendously that physical therapy did not.
