I am a certified Hatha Yoga Teacher and registered as an E-RYT 200 and YACEP with the Yoga Alliance, (an Experienced Registered Yoga Teacher and Continuing Education Provider with over 4,000 hours of teaching experience). I am also CPR/AED and First Aid certified.
I have had a meditation practice since 1996, and been a yoga practitioner since 2003. I completed my 200-hour Hatha Yoga Teacher Training Program at the Inland College of Yoga in Riverside, California in 2007 under the guidance of master yoga teacher Scott Miller, (now Director of the Western Yoga College). I have been teaching yoga and meditation classes, workshops, and retreats at both yoga studios and fitness centers ever since!
Over the years I have striven to grow and evolve as a yoga teacher by taking over 250 hours of additional advanced yoga teacher training in the history, philosophy and practice of yoga. I have studied Kundalini Yoga at the 3HO center Guru Ram Das Puri, in Espanola, New Mexico. I have studied the teachings of Ram Dass at the Institute for Spirituality and Health in Houston, Texas with Lex Gillian and Ram Dass. I have also studied at the Omega Institute in Rhinebeck, New York; taking continuing education courses from world-renowned teachers in Yin Yoga, Bhakti Yoga, Yoga and Mindfulness Practice, and the Science of Buddhist Meditation.
My focus is on providing my students with a truly holistic experience through my yoga classes; working with the body, mind, and spirit to help each person achieve a complete sense of well-being.
