Since my initial training in 2018, I have focused my teaching on our connection to nature- I love to practice outside! In 2023, I completed my Advanced Teacher Training to become and RYT-500 instructor. Whether you practice with me inside or out, you can expect to learn more about yoga techniques and the world around us as you get your body moving!
More about my practice
My mama would sometimes stretch into strange poses on the floor of our living room, and I suppose that was my introduction to yoga. I started to practice out of videos and books as a teenager, then moved to Taos, New Mexico, where I attended the noon flow at Shree Yoga Studio nearly every day. In 2018, after practicing daily for more than ten years, I finally felt ready to complete my teacher training with Annie Jacob in Salida, Colorado. I continued my studies with an advanced teacher training completed in 2021.
My heartfelt purpose in becoming a yoga teacher was to draw others closer to nature through the practice. I revere the ancient yogic texts, but our living world is the first and ultimate teacher. I love getting people outside to practice, but even a studio practice in a city in the dead of winter is a chance to connect to nature through its effect on our bodies. We are expressions of this universe, after all, so there can be no insights that separate us from stardust.
Indoors or out, gentle or powerful, I ground each practice in the place and season in which we practice. Winter classes are usually warming but focused on yogic philosophy and introspection, while classes during warmer weather discuss more anatomy and alignment as we attempt more ambitious poses both on and off of the mat. At the peak of the heat, we take time for cooling and calming. We seek to embody the blessings of each season.
