Directory of Yoga for All teachers

When I first began yoga, it was a challenge, and I almost gave up many times. My levels of flexibility and strength made many poses inaccessible. However, I didn't give up! I taught myself how to modify the poses to work for my body, and began to welcome the use of props in my practice. Although I was a casual practitioner of yoga for many years, I truly fell in love with my practice in 2015 as I was going through a time of depression in my life. Through meditation, breathing exercises, and the poses, I found a space of peace and quiet in my life and in my mind; I found balance. To put it bluntly: yoga saved me. After completing my 200 hour yoga teacher training in 2016 with Yoga Vibe in Los Angeles, California, I promised myself that I would help others find the magic in yoga without having to go through the hurdles I faced early on in my own practice. Today, I am a yoga teacher and a Reiki healer, sharing my love of yoga and alternative healing with the world!

Empowering people to create positive, sustainable health and lifestyle transformations.

In Ayurvedic Medicine, kapha is one of three doshas, and everyone has some grouping of each of them. I am no exception, but in many ways I identify with my kapha component, particularly when it comes to my yoga practice. Kapha folks are larger, a bit slower, have incredible powers of endurance, and really can use the stoking of their fire through a steady and vigorous yoga practice.

As a large-bodied yogi, I have learned a lot about building a practice that I love, and I want to work with you (no matter which dosha you identify with!) to build something that will strengthen and restore you through the practice of asana. I personally follow and promote the Health At Every Size model, which focuses on moving the body you are in, regularly and joyfully. With warmth and good humor, I teach people of all sizes to love and accept themselves and others through the empowering practice of progressive yoga, and to create a safe haven for people to explore their limits.

“My goal is that you start listening to your inner voice, first maybe it will happen spontaneously, in an asana, but slowly you will start hearing it in every situation, at every moment of your life.”
