After leaving a career as a Mergers and Acquisitions executive, I became a yoga instructor to teach others how yoga can refresh their minds and bodies and enhance their day to day lives. My classes use foundational yoga poses and flows to develop physical strength and flexibility in an atmosphere of guided instruction and encouragement. Whether one is a beginner or a long-time practitioner, there is always something new to learn and experience from every yoga class.
Movement has always been central to who I am and to my physical and spiritual well-being. As a classical ballet dancer, avid scuba diver, and yoga enthusiast, movement brings me joy and a peace that centers me. It has taught me the values of perseverance and diligence. It gets me through the stresses of life and helps me celebrate the triumphs. These are some of the experiences that I share with my students.
