Teaching Style:

I have been teaching yoga, spirituality and meditation since 1999 and I love to empower and inspire my students to learn how to self-embrace the embodied spiritual experience we call life. We breathe deeply, we move from the heart, and we relax deeply; all while following the traditional practice of yoga given in the yoga sutras of Patanjali.

I like to remind my students that Yoga is your direct participation in life already given to you. It’s not a search. It’s not to use the body or to use the mind to try to get somewhere; as if you’re not somewhere already. As if you’re not already the full-blown wonder of life. You cannot find a spiritual experience, because you are already having one. Any effort to find spirituality creates a layer of mental activity on top of this life. So, an authentic yoga experience is one of absorption. It is like a sigh of relief. It is a letting go. A deep surrender into appreciating that the beauty and wonder of life-reality has arrived. In you, as you. Spirit-consciousness is already here right now.
