I began my journey to becoming a yoga teacher after a reawakening to yoga during my pregnancy. Yoga helped me prepare for birth, and helped me in my postpartum recovery on so many levels: mentally, emotionally, as well as physically. Motherhood has given me new life, and determination to pursue my dreams, and live life to my fullest, seeing my heart walking outside my body as inspiration every day.

After completing my 200 Hour YTT, I went on to complete my Prenatal and Postnatal training with Melisa Delaney, deepen my studies in Ayurveda, obtain further Meditation training, seek more education in personal fitness training, gain certification in Pelvic Floor Yoga with Leslie Howard, and continue to learn with her and meet monthly with my peers in our respective health and wellness fields. Learning is just such a wonderful joy in life, and being able to share that which we learn enhances the whole experience. It brings me joy, to share these gifts.

Yoga is more than just a physical practice, having boundless healing applications, and it has, and continues to be a healing journey I want to share with others. I see  yoga as a gift that should be truly accessible to all, and can reach anyone where they are, right now, without limitations. Through my own experience with physiotherapy, injury recovery, and issues with old injuries that can limit my own abilities to reach certain  asana, have aided me first hand, to better understand modifications within yoga.

Part of my mission as a yoga teacher is to bring free, accessible yoga to new parents, and their children in the community, because I truly believe that yoga has so much to offer, particularly for those who cannot afford it. If we want a better world, we need to build it, and it begins by caring for families, and the world we share.  

I've always sought natural ways of healing since my youth, inspired by my grandmothers', and the traditions passed on to me. Ayurveda, and holistic practices were not new to me when presented in my YTT training, and I embraced it with great fervor when the opportunity came to leap further into these studies. Now I try to incorporate the art of healing into my sequencing via subtle inclusions of Mudras, Pranayamas, and alignments that work into the natural flow, and rhythm of the time and season we are in, moment by moment.
