My Teaching Style

I strive to create a safe and sacred space for students to connect to all aspects of their being. Focusing on deep, slow breathing and anchoring the mind in an intention or mantra are the main focuses of my classes, topped off with etheric and ambient background music. My aim is to guide the individual to slowly come back to their physical sensations and to explore and investigate their inner non-physical dimensions.

Experience

As a former gymnast and competitive athlete, yoga arose into importance in my life in my later 20s as a method of physical healing initially. After exploring the 8 limbs of yoga, I realized the true reasons why I was drawn to the practice: the need for inner balance, spirituality and self-discipline. Amidst the chaos of COVID, I decided to immerse myself in yoga in the Mexican rainforest, get certified and bring the healing practice to my community. I also have a background in classical music, bringing my voice into Sound Healing ceremonies and Savasanas. There is no greater freedom than stepping out of the intellect and allowing the intuition to pave the way!

Favorite Pose

I am drawn to grounding poses on the belly with an energizing backbend like Bow pose (Dhanurasana).
