"I see my classes as way to be present on your mat and to connect to your body within your movements. In my perspective, yoga is about taking time to find balance and to raise awareness of our bodies- not just in class, but in our daily lives as well. It is about developing consciousness and connecting to what creates happiness within each of us, and that is what makes my classes suitable for each individual student. You go where you want to go with your practice.
I've been teaching yoga since June 2008 and offer both group classes and private lessons.
I started practicing yoga five years ago when a fellow climber recommended yoga for improving balance and back and shoulder strength. I found Ashtanga yoga and my teacher, Akasha Ellis, and since have developed a deep respect and love for the Ashtanga practice.
In each of my classes we follow a similar sequence of postures, allowing students to connect to their breath and develop familiarity and focus on what feels good in the poses. Students can thus build their own foundation, attend other classes with confidence, and if they chose, establish the roots of their own personal practice.
