Like most people we meet: I had a hard childhood. I felt disconnected from myself, other people and my body. I have been trying to fix myself for a long time, and for a long time I was addicted to my sad little story.
Spirituality, yoga and movement offered me respite from the pain that made me feel unworthy and unhappy. When I practice, I do better. I feel hope. I see that change is possible. When I teach I feel a connection to myself and others. I am present and part of a community.
My classes are a space to learn, reflect, grow and sweat. They honor the twin needs that heal me on a daily basis: physical exertion and strength building, and stillness and introspection.
