Co-creator / owner & yoga teacher
she/her
I’m an introvert and a deep feeler of everyone’s feelings and energy – which for me translates to caring about creating spaces that aspire to be welcoming and inclusive. I’m always looking to challenge my understanding of myself, of yoga, and the world we live in and to grow my awareness of how my words and actions impact others. I am grateful for opportunities to develop that awareness together.
I’m Type A to the core (working on letting go, sometimes), analytical and generally consider myself to be a bit of nerd. Piano player. Book worm. Seeker of international travel. Oregon enthusiast. Chaser of sunsets. Hiker. Stand Up Paddleboarder. Proud mama to Shanti the Shiba. All-around lover of life.
The first time I stepped onto my yoga mat, I found a peace within and an acceptance for myself that I had never experienced before. My practice has been a daily part of my life ever since, and I am honored to guide others along that journey and into that space.
Informed & Inspired.
My classes are anatomically informed and soulfully inspired and reflect what I’ve found to be empowering from the time I’ve spent on my own mat in practice. I aspire to infuse my passion for the practice, my love of music and genuine, life-inspired musings into each class.
As an analytical human, I enjoy an alignment-based approach to asana, but believe that the alignment of postures should be something that is learned from the inside out, not from written rules.
I strive to invite freedom of exploration, observation, and inquiry into each class that I teach, so that over time you learn what your authentic alignment is, on your mat, and off. My style creates a space for yogis to be challenged and to grow their practice, but also to find ease, confidence, laughter and yogi friends.
