Description
I am a 500hr Certified Yoga Teacher from Chicago who’s been practicing yoga for 16 years, and have been teaching for 4 years. I began practicing when I was 18 and have been delightfully hooked ever since. Yoga has had a profound influence on my life and I am passionate about sharing this incredible practice with others. I feel so privileged to be an eternal student of this discipline and to share all that I continue to learn with my students. I practiced Astanga and vinyasa for many years before I injured my shoulder (not doing yoga) and then began immersing myself in the Iyengar style and other therapeutic modalities. I teach gentle and/or athletic mixtures of Hatha and Vinyasa styles of yoga, with emphasis on mindfulness and awareness of breath, as well as some Restorative practices and try to incorporate the meditative aspects into each experience.
