Yoga

In Sanskrit, the word, "yoga", means to "yoke" or "unite" the mind, body, and spirit. Historically, the physical practice of asanas (or poses) was intended to help you settle your body and mind, to allow you to come to stillness.

There are many different "flavors" of yoga out there, and within each style, every teacher or practitioner adds their own unique energy to make the experience of attending a yoga practice different, depending on the type of class you are attending, who is teaching it, the setting, the topic or focus, etc.

In my yoga offerings, I aim to help participants focus on their personal experience -- how poses and movements feel within their body, noticing and honoring what feels good or right for them. My hope and goal is to create opportunities for you to slow down, ground yourself into the present moment, and reconnect with your body, your breath, and your inner self. As a Reiki practitioner, I also often incorporate Reiki, or the option of receiving Reiki as part of my classes and events.

My Yoga Journey

I first began practicing yoga over 15 years ago. From the very first class, something deep within me connected to the practice, and I left the studio feeling not only great physically, but emotionally and spiritually as well. I continued to have a regular practice for a while, and then I became a mother. And then I became a mother again. And then I became a mother again. Through those years of babies and young children, my practice became more sporadic, but yoga was always something I returned to — a touchstone. Every time I returned to my mat, yoga allowed me to release some of the tension that I was carrying, and always left me feeling more grounded and a bit lighter. 

A few years ago, I found myself on a healing journey across all spectrums of well-being. Once again, yoga was there, and I began a dedicated daily practice. Throughout that journey, my regular yoga practice brought so much peace and healing in conjunction with the other healing modalities I was investing in. Along the way, I felt called to enroll in a yoga teacher training, with the hope to share the magic, beauty, and peace of yoga with others. 

In addition to group classes and events, I also offer individualized sessions combining

Yin Yoga & Reiki.  For more information, and to schedule, visit my Scheduling page.
