My teaching practice is a continual source of learning; both of yogic philosophy and of Self.
I am a student of yoga and teach from my experience. I was first drawn to yoga for the physical practice; moving and stretching my neglected body simply felt good (the relaxation at the end of the class was pretty good too!). As I continued to practice, the linking of movement to breath became an invaluable tool for me to slow down and pay attention. It was only after many years of physical practice that meditation became accessible to me. Now my meditation practice is an integral part of each of my days- a time to ‘be here now.’ As I have reconnected to my body, my breath, my energy and this moment I find that I am less reactive and am better able to see the beauty all around me. All of this has led me to be more understanding and compassionate towards both myself and others.
My teaching practice is a continual source of learning; both of yogic philosophy and of Self. I love teaching. Whether a group of beginners or more experienced practitioners, I always walk away from class feeling uplifted. I teach in an all-levels style with lots of guidance surrounding alignment and breath connection. My intent with my teaching style is to empower folks within their own practice so that they can come to rely on the teacher within- discovering their own yoga. The use of sound as a relaxation, meditative or healing aid has become part of my recent explorations. I offer sound baths with gongs, singing bowls, chimes and a variety of other instruments to further aid folks in their personal self-discovery.
