I was first introduced to yoga in 2003 while living in Hawaii and instantly fell in love with the immense physical and healing benefits of the practice. I began attending classes daily while working at a yoga studio. In 2018, I completed the 200 hour Anusara yoga teacher training with Peggy Profant and Samantha Akers in Arcata, followed closely by both the advanced 100 hour Bhakti/Urban Flow training with Rusty Wells in San Francisco and the advanced 300 hour TheraYoga Method training studying under Samantha Akers in Arcata. This training applied the therapeutic lens through yoga for special conditions, fascial fitness, biomechanics, anatomy, back health, breath work, engaged yin, restorative yoga and meditation. I completed the Understanding Trauma, Resilience & How Yoga Heals training taught by Alison Scola working specifically with the autonomic nervous system and became certified in Yoga Nidra through Liz Heffernan, both trainings were led through the Soma Yoga Institute. I have taken over 70 hours in yoga workshops led by International yoga instructors.

I began taking Pilates classes in 2019 and knew instantly that this form of resistance training was what my body had been desperately needing. Over the course of 18 months, I completed the contemporary STOTT Pilates Intensive trainings in Matwork, Reformer, Chair, Cadillac and Barrels studying with Holly Ferguson at Blue Sparrow Pilates in San Francisco and Amanda Rice Fletcher at Conscious Education in Denver. I became officially certified through STOTT Pilates in 2022 for all apparatus. I most recently completed the STOTT Pilates Zenga V2Vinyasa workshop with Conscious Education. This year I am continuing to further my education through STOTT Pilates with Amanda Rice Fletcher.
I teach alignment based classes and believe that by safely and consistently incorporating yoga and Pilates into our lives, we will truly experience improvements in health, gain strength as well as happiness, and move through our days with more ease. |
