I describe my own teaching as mindful yoga. I teach at a slower pace, encouraging individual autonomy and mindful awareness. And based on my background as a licensed clinical psychologist, my yoga teaching is inclusive, trauma-sensitive, and supportive of mental wellbeing.
Students can expect my classes to be slower-paced with a workshop-like feel at times, including asana (physical poses), pranayama (breathwork), mindfulness, mudra (hand gestures), philosophy, and a liberal use of props. I am serious about yoga and yet playful in my teaching, and I view yoga as a practice both on and off the mat.
In October 2015, I graduated from a 200-hour yoga teacher training certification with Aimée Senise Connors, who was originally certified in Anusara Yoga. I have come to enjoy a wide variety of yoga styles and to appreciate multiple yoga traditions. My additional yoga certifications include Restorative Yoga, Yoga for All, Yin Yoga and Anatomy, and Yoga for Healthy Aging.
