Teaching Philosophy


In my workshops and programs, I welcome students of all levels of ability and all ages, cultural backgrounds, and orientations. I hold a safe and nurturing space for you to challenge yourself and discover the unique gifts that yoga holds especially for you. I draw on my expertise in Reiki Energy Healing and Phoenix Rising Yoga Therapy to help you tune into yourself — your vital energy flow and the loving, supportive messages coming from your physical body. Once you learn to hear your inner wisdom and master the flow of your life force through yoga, you will master the flow of your life!

I see the human body as miraculous, and am dedicated to helping you listen deeply to its innate wisdom.  As a teacher, I firmly believe that my students already have everything they need to build their dream life.  We are not broken. Even the wounds we have sustained contribute to our unique power and beauty. We are already complete, with all the resources we need stored deep within us—our buried treasures.  It is just a matter of gaining access.

My mission is to help you reach your inner treasures and bring them into your daily life, so that you can flourish, create, and share your success with the world.
