I began practicing yoga in 2009 as a means to relieve sciatic pain. Within a few weeks, the sciatic pain was gone, and the physical and mental well-being I felt after class kept me coming back for more. Yoga has helped me grow stronger, more flexible and inspires me to live each moment more mindfully. I became a registered yoga teacher in 2012 and I continue to be a student of yoga. I truly believe that yoga is a path to the fountain of youth, as well as a path to overall well-being. My hope is that students step off the mat feeling refreshed, happy and balanced.

I was born and raised in New York State, and life has since guided me to my home in Virginia. I’m married, blessed with four wonderful children, and delighted to be a grandmother to three beautiful little souls. I am a yoga teacher though, in many ways, I feel yoga found me. While exploring different movement and fitness styles, yoga appeared almost by accident… yet it immediately felt different, familiar, and deeply right. What began as curiosity quickly grew into a lifelong path. I have been practicing and teaching for several years now, and the learning never stops. My offerings include Yin Yoga, Self Awakening Yoga, an approach that expands consciousness through the body’s innate wisdom and Hatha Yoga. Each style allows me to guide students into deeper awareness, gentleness, and personal transformation. Yoga continues to evolve with me, and I’m grateful every day for the opportunity to share its healing, clarity, and quiet magic with others.

I started yoga at home in 2011 using TV programs and DVD’s because I had lost a sense of physical balance. I started attending classes at Art of Balance Yoga shortly after it opened in January 2015 and found more than the regaining of my physical balance. I also found mental awareness, flexibility, and more strength than I’ve ever had before in a non-competitive and supportive community. I completed my RYT-200 Yoga Teacher Training at Art of Balance Yoga in June 2018. My goal as a teacher is to share a class with you that is creative and playful but purposeful and that allows you to take away a sense of balance and renewal. We practice as individuals, adapting the practice to be our own, with a group of kindred spirits. Practicing yoga we are centered within ourselves, yet interacting with others just as we need to be when we leave the studio.
