Hatha Yoga (English)

When I first found yoga, more than 30 years ago, I mostly embraced it as a a way to deal with stress and connect with a body that I was entirely to uncomfortable in. My practice has of course changed, morphed and grown over the years. One constant for me, is the comfort I find every time I roll out my mat. Not necessarily in each asana, some of them challenge me, and bring out some decidedly un-yogi thoughts... the comfort really comes at the end of practice, I can tell I feel more present, more plugged in to myself and the world around me, more at ease and calm. This comfort is something I love sharing with the world which ultimately led me to becoming a yoga teacher in 2013, more than 25 years after first practicing yoga. It's been a wonderful process for me, that's allowed me to continue to study, grow, and learn as a teacher. All of my training has been in the US, where I started with a foundational 200 hour teacher training in Hatha Yoga, and built on that with a 300 hour teacher training in Anusara yoga. I've also studied Yin Yoga with a 100 hour teacher training certification and continue to study with other teachers. As a teacher, it's very important to me that each student feels comfortable in exploring what works and does not work for them in the present moment. While I studied alignment based yoga, each of us have our own intrinsic experience, so cues are invitations and suggestions for exploration not a demand to match a particular shape. With each class I strive for an open, playful, inviting class that is balanced, different each week, well sequenced, and accessible to all. So please come and join me on the mat.
