My yoga journey began with a book of poses back in the late eighties. Although it took me many years to develop a regular practice, I always came back to those poses because they were so beneficial to my physical and emotional well being. Since those early days, I became a Registered Massage Therapist, opened my own business (Stillpoint Massage Therapy & Yoga),. I completed my Yoga Alliance 200hr Teaching Certification at Pranashantiand and my 300hr advanced teacher training with Marla Eriksen at. Empower Me Yoga.. My advanced studies have included certification in Yin, Restorative Yoga, and Yoga Nidra. I have created Anasa Labs for the YTT at Empower Me Yoga and have taught advanced anatomy workshops.I continue to deepen my studies in yoga philosophy, embodiment practices, and Ayurveda with teachers such as Sylvie Gouin and Anne Pittman. My goal is to extend the benefits of this amazing practice to those interested and to allow each student the space to practice mindful awareness on and off the mat.
