Something about getting high off my own breath, the intriguing movements, and weird Sanskrit words had me fascinated... After my first Kundalini class, I fell in love with Yoga as I was floating out of Savasana. I never would have thought that different breathing techniques and strange movements could completely change my mind state. I had to know more.
That, plus my long-time interest in anatomy and philosophy, and tendency to ask “why?”, eventually took me from Northern Virginia to SoCal for my first teacher training in 2013.
As someone with a vivid imagination, I’m often lost in the stories (positive and negative) being told in my mind. I practice Yoga because it grounds me and brings me back to the present reality. Asana teaches me the discipline and patience I need off the mat, and pranayama (breath-work), meditation, and mantra help keep my emotions in balance. With consistency, my practice helps me feel and be my personal best.
I teach to share all the knowledge that I’ve learned [and continue to learn] with others so that they might discover something that inspires them to become their best Self.
