Mindful Movement & Stress Reduction

Welcome!

 

I’m so glad you’re here!
 

I’ve put together a little information in case you’re wondering a little bit about me and my teaching style so you know what to expect when you come to a class. 

 

My journey with mindfulness began in 2005, when I walked into a yoga class as an athlete simply looking to support my body and manage stress. What I discovered instead was a practice that transformed my relationship with movement, breath, and rest. Over time, yoga became a steady companion, helping relieve chronic pain, improve sleep, and bring balance to my everyday life.

 

By 2014, I began teaching yoga, first as a stand-up paddleboard instructor and eventually across a wide range of styles including Vinyasa, Yin, Restorative, Yoga Nidra, and trauma-informed practices. Along the way, I completed multiple teacher trainings and certifications, each shaping how I hold space for others. My teaching style has been influenced not only by formal education, but by lived experience, curiosity, and a deep respect for the nervous system.

 

In 2020, a life-altering event required me to slow down in ways I never had before. Recovery challenged me physically, emotionally, and mentally, and it reshaped how I understand healing. During this season, I learned the importance of gentleness, patience, and grace, lessons that now form the foundation of how I teach and practice.

 

Today, I guide slow, mindful movement paired with breath awareness to support restoration, resilience, and self-care. My classes are trauma-informed, invitational, and adaptable, honoring where each person is on any given day.

 

My approach is quietly rooted in faith, believing that true healing often unfolds in moments of presence, compassion, and surrender. My hope is that through our time together, you feel supported in reconnecting with yourself, finding calm within your body, and experiencing peace that carries into daily life.

 

It would be an honor to walk alongside you in this practice.
