My love for yoga came to light in 2008, right when I moved to Austin and was experiencing big (and sometimes difficult) transitions. I found my voice and strength in vinyasa yoga, and was immediately drawn to the fluid practice of connecting breath with the body. Its benefits began to extend way past the physical, bringing peace to an anxious mind and teaching me how to cultivate more self-acceptance and self-awareness. Because of this, I started down the road to become a teacher myself, and keep spreading this incredible practice to others. I am an RYT-500, and was certified through the Wanderlust Yoga 200-hour Teacher Training program in 2014, and earned my 300-hour certification through the Janet Stone School of Yoga in 2018. I specialize in teaching meditation and vinyasa yoga, with a love for mindful flows, ritual, creative sequencing, and dynamic, intuitive movement.
Alongside my 500 hours of training, I completed a 100-hour training / immersion with Janet Stone in Ubud, Bali, where I continued my education in vinyasa sequencing, alignment, mantra and kirtan, meditation, and Ayurvedic practices. I continued my studentship with Janet in November of 2016, attending a 50-hour training focused on the Five Elements and Sadhana in Los Cabos, Mexico, and as of January 2018, I completed Janet Stone's 25-hour Intuitive Sequencing training. I have also trained under, learned from, and been inspired by many local Austin teachers, of which I am especially thankful to Gioconda Parker, for giving me my first meaningful introduction to yoga and for her heartfelt guidance throughout my journey. Infinite bows and thank you's to all of my amazing teachers. Jai guru deva!
Currently, I teach public classes exclusively at Wanderlust Yoga Austin.
