Yoga has been a steady support in my life since graduating college in the late 90s. I
began my journey with more athletic forms of yoga (Bikram, heated vinyasa). Then as I
moved through different stages of life (from pregnancy, to new mom, to now midlife) my
practice has shifted and evolved to include more restorative practices. My teaching
centers mental and emotional balance just as much as bringing more physical comfort
to your body. When I am not teaching, I am working one on one with clients in my
private yoga therapy practice in J.P.
My love for learning has led me to many certifications over the last 20+ years: 200hr
YTT from YogaSpirit Studios (2005), 500hr YTT from Barbara Benagh and 600hr Yoga
Therapy certification from Phoenix Rising (2020). Additional certifications include:
Trauma-Informed Yoga Therapy Training, Thai Yoga
Massage, Restorative Yoga Teacher Training, The Art of Assists, Yoga for Anxiety and Depression, and Reiki level 1.
Description
Yin is a style of yoga that focuses primarily on the connective tissues and fascia network of the body. Through an exploration of longer-held and generally passive postures, the yin yoga practice offers physical benefits such as joint mobility, restoration on a cellular level, and connecting to energy flow within the body. In addition to many more physical benefits, the yin yoga practice offers mental and spiritual benefits as practitioners deepen their relationship with the living body and being in the present moment. The practice fosters resiliency as students mindfully & softly navigate layers of self, discover mental habits, understand stress management, personal trauma-response, and inner alignment… an observation of healing in the present moment. The yin space is designed for compassionate connection; connection to self, community, Mother Earth, Source of all life, and being. All are welcome in this space.
