I believe yoga is perfect for every body, age, size, and ability. It's not a competitive sport nor is it an athletic competition. Yoga means connection - mind, body, and spirit. And that's what happens when you step onto your mat. You begin to connect with yourself, ALL of yourself, in a deep and profound way.
COME AS YOU ARE.
USE WHAT YOU HAVE.
DO WHAT YOU CAN.
My yoga classes and workshops are relaxing and are designed to introduce you to the soothing and vibrant world of yoga. I guide my students into various poses using bolsters, blankets, foam blocks and straps for support.
I also use modifications and variations for poses, designed to work with YOUR body. Sometimes we do a little chanting, meditation, and use positive affirmations. I teach group and private classes. I am also a YOGA for ALL trained teacher.
I firmly believe the Yoga Sutra that states "No effort is ever wasted.”
I am YIN yoga certified and am a body positivity and trauma-informed yoga teacher. I specialize in YIN, Gentle, Restorative and Chair Yoga.
I'm registered with YOGA ALLIANCE, have over 1000 teaching hours, and am insured. My yoga certificates, resume' and letters of recommendation are available.
My 2-hour yoga workshops include: YIN yoga, Goddess Yoga, Chakra Yoga, Restorative Yoga, and Beginning Yoga. Each have an option to include a 30-minute Yoga Nidra practice at the end of the workshop.
All my yoga classes and workshops are suitable for those new to yoga as well as all levels of yoga experience. I use modifications and variations to help you settle into the poses.
I often use soft drums, gentle chimes and crystal chakra singing bowls. Soothing peaceful music and positive affirmations provide a lovely atmosphere.

My Yoga Classes
I currently teach private and group yoga classes, at your location.
Contact me to schedule a class and for larger group pricing.
Bring your own props, yoga mat, yoga blankets, foam blocks, straps, etc.
GENTLE YOGA is made up of slow smooth standing and seated movements. We allow ourselves to feel sensations in our bodies, mind and hearts.
RESTORATIVE YOGA uses props such as blankets, bolsters and soft blocks to settle into floor poses that fully support our bodies.
YIN YOGA is designed to slowly stretch the fascia inside our bodies. The poses allow us to go inside ourselves and find stillness.
CHAIR YOGA uses a chair to sit and sometimes stand, using it for support, as we move through a variety of poses, slowly and mindfully or with a little more energy, based on what we need.
