Introduction: When I found Yoga, I fell in love. Connecting with the body, breath and mind truly changed my life. I have found a deep compassion for myself and a strength that continues to grow and spill out in all areas of my life, not just on the mat.
I love to create a safe and fun space where I can empower students by helping them connect fully to their body and breath. Through this connection magic happens, the body strengthens and the mind focuses. Focused breath can also calm the central nervous system. We use static and dynamic movement along with yoga postures to awaken muscles that may not have been used and we rewire the body to react differently during stress. My goal is to lead my students through a practice where they feel supported enough to begin to uncover their inherent strength. My passion lies in teaching and sharing the fundamentals of yoga and watching my students transform. Yoga is a journey of the body, mind and soul.
The benefits of yoga are many, at the forefront are increased strength, flexibility and mobility. Yoga also has been proven to reduce stress and anxiety levels, aids in digestion, aids in sleep, helps to release tension, and provides you with tools you can use at any time not just in a session with me.
