I offer private and small group yoga and therapeutic yoga sessions, as well as group classes. My group classes are meditative and challenging vinyasa style classes with enough structure to ensure that each student enjoys a well-rounded class, and with modifications and options so students can make their practice their own. I also teach gentle, restorative, and yin yoga classes.
why I teach yoga
While I loved my first yoga class and how it made me feel, I did not get serious about yoga until stress began affecting my health and I realized that my coping strategies of wine and whining were not effective. I sought more than just improved physical health, and embarked on the path of yoga in earnest. Yoga offers a way to connect with self and community that is profoundly positive and affirming. Teaching allows me to share the power of mindfulness, the clarity and self-awareness, and the physical benefits I continue to discover through yoga, and gives me a wonderful excuse to pursue my own education. I do still drink wine and whine, but not nearly as often!
I completed my 200 hour teacher training through OM yoga Center NYC and have since completed a yin yoga certification and yoga for cancer training, among others. I am a member of the International Alliance of Yoga Therapists. In my free time, if I am not outdoors or reading a book, I am probably at a yoga class, training, or workshop.
