With years of mentorship, dedicated study into the dharmic traditions, and a lifelong personal practice of āsana, prāṇāyāma, & meditation supporting me, I invite you to explore the art of embodiment.

In my classes, I offer a consent-based, accessible, and nervous system-informed approach that creates a welcoming landing pad for all bodies, identities, and abilities. I focus less on the appearance of the shapes and instead place attention on the subtle energetic exploration of your soma, the opening of your heart-cave, the nourishment of your breath, and the state of your mind. This is the yoga of being rather than doing.

The root of the word yoga, yuj, means “to yoke” or “to unite.” The unity of body and mind cultivated through yoga gives rise to skillful action: nonviolent and compassionate behavior in the world. The Patañjala aṣṭāṇga (eight limb) yoga path is a journey of Self-realization with ethics interwoven through its limbs. These principles guide the sādhaka, the dedicated practitioner, towards inner peace and external integrity.

When we commit to living yoga philosophy, we begin to cultivate a present-focused awareness that is playfully curious about sensation while gently quieting the inner critic. An accomplished yogī moves through life in harmony, attuned to the rhythms and language of nature… of Mother Earth herself. May any merit arising from this practice be dedicated to the liberation of all beings, सर्वभूतानि (sarva-bhutāni), everywhere.
