Teaches at Liberation Nashville

My yoga journey began when I was 5 years old doing downward dogs with Lilias Folan. Every afternoon, after kindergarten in Southern California, I would run home and turn on the television to catch the last part of Lilias’ yoga show so I could “sit like a pretzel” and “growl like a lion” before Sesame Street came on. 

Not having a clue as to what amazing tradition I was practicing at the time, it would be years later before I realized that teaching yoga was indeed, part of my dharma.

Now, my practice consists of a blend of Ashtanga and more therapeutic forms of yoga, with a twist of Iyengar’s penchant for good posture. While I offer a variety of class styles from Yoga Nidra and Yin Yoga® to restorative, vinyasa and more alignment based practices, my favorite classes to teach are for beginners.
