Yoga Biography

I have been practicing yoga since 2001 and completed my first yoga teacher training certification in 2008 at the Kripalu Center for Yoga and Health. Back then, I snapped this photo on a Spring day, as this path (near the foot bridge close to the building) feels like a life metaphor.  Since then, I have completed two more 200-hour yoga teaching certifications and an additional 300-hour training at Asheville Yoga Center. I have also completed several trainings and workshops on trauma-sensitive yoga with teachers including David Emerson, Amy Weintraub, Sue Jones, and Bessel van der Kolk.

I also enjoy the practices of meditation, loving-kindness, and self-compassion. You can listen to me lead a guided meditation here or on Insight Timer app.
