Bio: "My yoga journey began over 30 years ago, after I moved from the Pacific Northwest ā where I was born and raised ā to the Northern California town of Chico, where I raised my three children. There, I grew increasingly interested in wellness, which has become a lifelong passion, and began supplementing my workouts with an occasional yoga class. After later moving to New Orleans, I was deeply drawn to power yoga, an interest that led me to sign up for teachers training in effort to heighten my own body awareness after a series of injuries. Iām excited and grateful for the opportunity to share my knowledge and yoga with others."
