Yoga was not a love at first try experience for me.  When I stepped into my first class,  I was less than optimistic that I would even like it.  I not only had zero flexibility and complete lack of balance,  I also had arthritis in both of my knees and tendonitis in my left shoulder.  In my mind I was the complete opposite of what I had known a Yogi to look like. 

​

Leaving class that day, I was surprised how good I felt.  I wasn't able to do all of the poses but I really enjoyed being guided to connect to my breath and move my body.  

​

I kept going back. And over time, I learned that my practice did not need to look a certain way.  I learned to modify poses by using props and eventually was able to do an entire class using these tools. Over time, I learned to let go of how I looked and fell in love with how I felt. 

​

I believe yoga is for every body .  Whether you are a beginner or a seasoned practitioner with an injury, you can do yoga.  My mission is to help people, where they are now, gain confidence with a personalized practice that they can use at home or in a group class.
