My focus and background training is in Vinyasa Flow as well as with Warriors at Ease (warriorsatease.org). I teach to a wide range of students from beginners to advanced in a local studio in Bay Saint Louis, MS. I also spend time teaching yoga to active military for the Navy on the Gulf Coast. Many of my students include special operators who are often very strong, but need to increase their flexibility. I teach challenging classes to them, often including arm balances, while also focusing on increasing their flexibility and providing breathing techniques that reduce stress. In addition, I design individual classes to meet other needs that support them—often working through back, shoulder, and hip injuries, while teaching breath and core work that keep them safe while operating and weight lifting.
My goal is to give back to the military community who so bravely serve our country. If you are active military or a Veteran, please feel free to contact me with questions.
I also teach advanced Vinyasa classes, inversion workshops, and arm balance/advanced poses workshops at Loft Yoga Bay Saint Louis (loftbsl.com) and the workshops are available for YACEP credit. I added Ashtanga to my personal practice three years ago, and I now teach a led Ashtanga Primary Series at Loft.
However, I also regularly teach beginners classes that are alignment focused for "Yogis that don't do Yoga"....and I absolutely love it!
I'm teaching on-line through loftbsl.com if you want to join me from somewhere distant :-)
Come see me or reach out with questions!
