What is your teaching style?

Diverse. Teaching to the needs of ALL students and to EVERY BODY. I enjoy teaching multi flows but also slowing it down to relaxing flows. Wide variety and meeting the needs of all my students.

What type of student would benefit from your classes?

All students. Depending on what class I'm teaching there is a wide range of students and their abilities.

What does yoga mean to you?

Yoga is about calming of the mind, finding patience and feeling strength physically. Yoga is about the journey, not the destination.

What is your favorite asana and why?

Pigeon. I love how relaxing pigeon makes me feel. It’s a great hip opener and makes you surrender as you fold forward. There is something about all the different variations you can take in pigeon that inspires me and makes it my favorite.
