I blend safe, mindful movement with a lighthearted approach so you can challenge yourself, relax, and actually enjoy the process. I create space for relaxation, but also believe yoga—life and ourselves—should never be taken too seriously. My students tell me they love how I can articulate profound insights while guiding them safely through movement, challenging body and mind, and still bringing out smiles and laughter. I have been an athlete since childhood, and came to yoga as a teenager for both balance and mental health, and fell in love with the practice and its philosophies. In my early twenties, my teacher acknowledged my standout dedication to the practice so much he even developed a payment plan for me so I could become certified and spread the benefits. I am passionate. I began teaching in studios and corporate wellness programs up and down the West Coast in 2013. By request of my clients, I started teaching in-home privates shortly after my teaching journey began—and expanded to teaching at national festivals and retreats shortly after. In 2016 I took root in Los Angeles and opened a yoga studio with a community of people as inspired by the practice as I am. Unfortunately we were forced to let the studio go due to commercial sales of the strip mall, but the memories of Create Yoga live on (check out Create Yoga reviews on Yelp). Now I offer private sessions in Los Angeles—because I love working with my clients on a personal level to customize the practice to suit their needs, and meet their goals. I work with beginners and experienced students. My athletic background helps me navigate special requests and injuries to craft practices that work for your body and your goals. I promise to meet you where you're at, help you get all that you want from the practice, and enjoy the process along the way!
