I have been training  with my amazing  teacher Yogarupa Rod Stryker since 2003 and am certified Level 1 Parayoga teacher, having spent over 1000 hours studying with him.  Parayoga incorporates the science and philosophy of Tantra, Ayurveda, yoga and meditation into its practical and life changing  practice approach.  

June 2016 - received my certification as a 4 Desires Trainer- 1 of only 25 students certified by  Yogarupa Rod Stryker to teach this life-changing work!  To be able to guide  students thru this powerful process - as detailed in his book, The Four Desires, is such an honor

Have been influenced by many others along the way -  Pandit Rajmani Tigunait of the Himalayan Institute, my 2 amazing Ayurveda teachers -Kathryn Templeton and Dr Rosy Mann - director of Kripalu's school of Ayurveda, Sarah Powers and Dr Timothy McCall

Always curious and passionate about learning - I continue to study Yoga and Ayurveda!                                    In  2021 - I graduated as an NAMA certified  AYURVEDA PRACTITIONER  studying with Dr Ashlesha Raut at Ananda Ayurveda Academy in Chicago IL - SO excited to share this!

Am also a founding member of AUM - Ayurveda Untied in the Midwest - a nonprofit organization dedicated to sharing knowledge and increasing awareness of Ayurveda.

In 2015 - became an Ayurveda Health Counselor - a 650 hr course certified by NAMA - National Ayurveda  Association - emphasis on Yoga, ayurvedic diet and lifestyle to create mental and physical health and wellness!

In 2012-  became a certified Ayurveda Yoga Specialist thru the Himalayan Institute's Ayurveda program and am an instructor for this program - training yoga teachers how to increase their knowledge and incorporate more yoga and ayurveda into their teaching and work with private clients.

I teach Yoga, meditation and Ayurveda - specializing in personal instruction to help students deepen their practice, rehabilitate from injuries, and use  Ayurveda and Yoga  to help them with mental and physical health issues. Also offering Yoga Nidra practices for stress reduction and relaxation.
