It was important to find a way to feel grounded. I practiced at home for a year before ever stepping into a yoga studio. Once I started practicing at a local spot, I was overcome with a wonderful sense of community. It didn’t take long for me to realize that I wanted to dive deeper into yoga. In 2017, I signed up for a teacher training in Berkeley, California, and over the course of six months, I learned a lot about yoga and myself. I practiced and studied a mindful Vinyasa style and later trained in the styles of Yin and Nidra. Since then, I have taught classes in different studios throughout the East Bay. I am a certified mindfulness coach and enjoy adding these techniques to my yoga classes. For me, yoga is about taking time to connect with yourself physically, mentally, and emotionally. I enjoy blending different styles to create a well-balanced practice for all. Each practice is taught with light heartedness, intention, and compassion.
