Yoga Biography
I have been practicing yoga since 2001 and completed my first yoga teacher training certification in 2008. Since then, I have completed two more 200-hour yoga teaching certifications and am 500-hour certified. In addition, I have started the 1,000-hour certification through the Kripalu Center for Yoga and Health. I have also completed several trainings and workshops on trauma-sensitive yoga with teachers including David Emerson, Amy Weintraub, Sue Jones, and Bessel van der Kolk.
I also enjoy the practices of meditation, loving-kindness, and self-compassion. You can listen to me lead a guided meditation here.
