I attended my first yoga class in 2006 and at the time I was running a lot and I found that my body recovered so much faster when I maintained a steady yoga practice.
That was clearly just the beginning! Yoga has changed my life for the better across the board, whether we are talking about maintaining relationships or supporting stronger physical, mental and emotional health. In June of 2017, I received my 100-Hour Ayurvedic Lifestyle Counselor Training Certificate with Arpita Shah and in October of that same year, I earned my yoga teacher training certificate with Marcee Gutman-Ballantyne at Fountain of Health Yoga Studio. In 2018, I received a Gong Therapy Training Certificate in sound healing with Mehtab Benton in Austin, TX. In 2021, I became a NASM certified personal trainer and love having deeper insights on movement as medicine! In 2022 I completed a 300-hr yoga teacher training with Sattva Yoga and am now a 500-level teacher, and am a member of Yoga Alliance. In August of 2023, I completed a human services degree in corrections supoort services, graduating magna cum laude and I am currently working for a wonderful nonprofit organization in Alamosa, CO. I am in graduate school working on a master's degree in clinical mental health counseling as well. It's been beautiful to see how my life's path has led me here to deepen my practices and understanding in the San Luis Valley of Colorado! I love encouraging students to have fun while gaining greater confidence, body awareness and motivation to challenge perceived limitations. I love collaborating with my partner Travis to offer Yoga & Gong sessions, events, trainings and workshops. In my experience, the greatest growth comes from towing the line of what is predictable and common and surrendering to the present moment. There is a world of adventure in the here and how, sometimes we just need to slow everything down enough to be able to perceive it. The latest news is that we have just purchased a property in Crestone, CO and are exticed to bring people here to study and play with us. This is a place where our intentions can be amplified and we will be adding more events to our calendar. Stay tuned!
