Yoga instructor bio:

 

I am a Sattva Yoga instructor, trained and certified by Rameen Peyrow, founder of the Sattva Yoga practice. I am an eternal student, striving for discipline. I love to laugh...I can also be pretty serious. Often I can use some help remembering to laugh at myself.

 

Sattva Yoga is an expression of Hatha and Raja Yoga. It emphasizes breathing techniques while balancing flowing movement with the introspection of added time spent in postures. At the end of the practice we begin to shift toward an experience of Raja Yoga, as we sit, deepening our awareness of each breath, and develop a restful, yet strong capacity for meditation.

 

I have always been immersed in a blend of sound and mindful movement. My experience with music, Martial Arts training, climbing, dance, cycling, and running have all seen such amazing benefits through the foundation, freedom, and union that comes with the journey of yoga.

 

As a Yoga instructor I feel privileged to show others my practice of Yoga. A growing union of musical sound, mind, spirit, nerves, bones, muscles, connective tissue, bio feedback, bio mechanics and so many other aspects of the body. 

 

Together we can build our practice of Yoga.
