Biography

INSPIRATIONS I'm inspired by travel, exploration, and great conversations. I'm inspired by history, possibilities, and new experiences. And my ridiculous cat. WHY I PRACTICE I'm someone who needs assistance getting grounded, and yoga helps me with this. That said, I'm also someone who loves to fly, and yoga gives me space for this. The not-so-subtle place of balance between these two extremes is why I practice. WHY I TEACH Yoga asks us to always be a student. I embrace this lifelong learning process, and I love that, as a teacher, I'm given this terrific excuse to keep on learning. This way, I can develop my own practice but can also continue to share new discoveries and help other yogis build their practice.
