My interest in yoga began when I was twelve years old.  I obtained a copy of Integral Yoga by Swami Satchidananda and have practiced ever since. In addition, my searching wove in a couple of black belts and decades of meditation.  I specialize in hatha/yin hybrid teaching with a certification from Paul Grilley in Functional Yin Yoga. My students come first and compassion motivates my classes. We each do the best we can with what we have or don't have.  Although I practice with multiple injuries and understand limitations in myself and others, I still enjoy the challenge of a strong practice. I am aging backwards, energized with the fluid pressure of gravity on my tissues. You can too.
