I am deeply passionate about sharing yoga in a way that is both empowering and accessible. I love supporting clients as they make these ancient practices fresh and all their own. As a Yoga Therapist, my goal is to empower individuals to find a place of peace, safety, and wellbeing within themselves to help them live healthier, happier, and more connected lives. Research shows that yoga-based practices can help a wide variety of conditions from low back pain to depression. While I am trained to work with many different populations, my personal interests include healthy aging, heart disease, anxiety, stress reduction, and movement disorders including Multiple Sclerosis and Parkinson’s Disease. Before yoga, I was living on autopilot. I was disconnected from my body and out of touch with myself. When I discovered yoga and began experiencing huge shifts in my physical and mental health, I knew I wanted to share this practice with others. In 2010, I began teaching yoga in studios and gyms. I continued to learn as much as possible about this practice through ongoing training in various yoga modalities, anatomy, meditation, and philosophy. While I love teaching group classes, I began to recognize that many of the people who could benefit the most from yoga were not in the room. That is when I knew it was time to shift from Yoga Instructor to Yoga Therapist. In 2020, I completed a Master of Science in Yoga Therapy from the Maryland University of Integrative Health. Yoga Therapy looks at the whole person, not just the injury or illness one may be experiencing. As your Yoga Therapist, I will take an individualized approach to empower you towards enhanced health and wellness. We will work together to develop a personal yoga practice that supports your goals, lifestyle, and needs. Contact me to learn more. I look forward to helping you EXPLORE YOGA THERAPY!
