I began my practice of yoga in 2006, after I was involved in a traumatic car accident. I found that yoga and meditation was an excellent way to handle pain both physically and emotionally.
It was on a trip to Thailand, the following year, that solidified my interest in yoga for therapeutic healing. In 2011 I left the corporate world and moved to Switzerland with my husband and two dogs. I began to pursue my passion here. After meeting teacher, Stephen Thomas, in Zurich, Switzerland I began to take an in depth look at my practice and accompanied him on a retreat to Bali.
In Bali, I decided to pursue this passion not only for myself, but to share with others. The following November I completed a 200- hour intensive teacher training program at Samahita Retreat Center in Koh Samui, Thailand. I became pregnant in early 2013 and began looking for complementary practices.
I enrolled in an 80 hour prenatal yoga training with Sue Elkind, founder of DIG yoga. The journey through pregnancy and birth brought me closest to my practice. I was able to nurture the changes occurring in my body. I gained the understanding and wisdom of the intelligence in my body while nourishing my growing baby.
My passion for therapeutics in yoga was deeply met when I found Tiffany Cruickshank, founder of Yoga Medicine. I completed my 500 hour Advanced Training Certification in 2018. I'm a Yoga Medicine® Registered Therapeutic Specialist. I am currently enrolled in the Yoga Medicine 1000 hour advanced teacher certification, assisting and collaborating with Yoga Medicine 500 hour trainings all over the world.
My passion to evolve as a human and teacher is continuous. I am currently exploring in depth the integration of the subtle body, energetic dynamics, and Yoga Therapeutics. I have been a Vedic Meditator since 2019. This practice of self study and self discipline informs my daily life. I am currently partaking in a 300 hour advance training with Kia Miller, creator of Radiant Body Yoga. I begin the study of Biodynamic Cranial Sacral Therapy in May of 2022 and I am excited to integrate the deep healing wisdom of this practice to inform my offerings to this world.
Yoga is my medicine, and I am committed to learning as much as possible about the human body and mind in order to be of service to my students.
