I'm a certified trauma conscious yoga teacher and I enjoy working with Connected Warriors, an organization that offers trauma conscious yoga to active duty service members, veterans, first responders and their families for free. I  have Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (Hypermobility type) or EDS for short. It is a rarely diagnosed genetic disorder. It has made me look differently at my yoga practice and along with the help of my yoga teachers, I have learned to practice yoga safely in my body, as well as teach others who deal with EDS or other HSD disorders as well. I am an advocate for rare diseases. I am certified with THE FIRE WATCH. I am certified in Restorative, Yin, Chair and Empowered or MST (Military Sexual Trauma) yoga as well. I am also a CMT200.
