Around 1980 I attended my first yoga class. I practiced on and off and finally took my first teacher training 1999, with Yogi Shanti Desai. In January 2000 I became a full time yoga teacher.
I have since grabbed every opportunity to learn more, attending workshops with Deborah Williamson, Peter Sterios, Judith Hanson-Lasater, Sajeevan Arakkal Manoharan, Jonas Westring, Ryan Leier, Julie Martin, and others. I have learned Ashtanga Yoga, Vinyasa, Yoga Nidra, Restorative Yoga, Ayurvedic Yoga and Yin Yoga, but always return to the style that first caught my heart, the soft flow that quiets my mind for meditation.
I was lucky enough to learn some Sanskrit during my university years and have an insatiable interest in the old scriptures.
I also studied Ayurveda for a while, with Atreya Smith, Vasant Lad, and David Frawley.
I opened my own studio in 2011, in my hometown in Iceland.
Yoga is my passion in life!
