Yoga
We are Body, Mind, Soul, Community and Environment.

There are many interpretations of the meaning of yoga. To back to the root word- to yoke or unite - the way I teach yoga intends to afford the pratitioner space and time to connect with their whole self, with a continual lens on the inner landscape together with physical negotiation between effort and ease.

My teaching spans over 20 years and is influenced by several frameworks of the practice, namely Iyengar and Jivamukti Yoga, of which I hold an Advanced Certification. Rolfing® and Rolf Movement® have also played an important role in how I understand  physical reality, and how I communicate and invite the exploration of movement. I am interested in movement practices as a lens to functional health, personal connection and our awareness of our changing relationship with gravity.

On a personal note, the experience of illness and recovery has brought an unique awareness of how yoga benefits healing, both physically as well as mentally and emotionally.

I support, encourage and empower practitioners in what I call 'stretch' moments --moments when we feel safe enough to emerge in a place slightly outside of the ordinary-- and to never assume there is only one approach to anything in life.
