A bit about my practice

I have a 300 HR YYT from Good Ground Yoga with Leslie Pearlman and teach regular weekly classes at Auke Bay Studio.

My own yoga practice has helped to get me out of my head and into my body. As someone who has struggled with chronic illness and pain, I’ve found comfort and relief on my yoga mat. Practicing allows me to feel a sense of body neutrality and even acceptance that is often difficult to find in the hustle that comes with our capitalist society.

My classes provide an opportunity to feel embodied in a trauma-informed and queer-friendly space where choice is not just allowed, but welcomed. Helping students to better understand what feels good for them is my most important goal as a yoga instructor. 

“The yoga of the everyday — not about perfecting your downward dog, but about applying the hard lessons learned on the mat to the even harder daily project of living.”
