One of the many things yoga teaches us is that when we connect to our bodies, we can discover resources for grounding, calm, and personal integration.
Style
My classes emphasize breath awareness and somatic cues to highlight the mind/body connection. I like a slow, embodied flow, and I use language that considers the diverse experiences and nervous systems of my students. My only goal is to create a space where you can listen to your body, breathe, and be kind to yourself.
Classes
I have taught weekly classes at Joy of Yoga and offered special series at Empowered Spaces that typically ran 4-6 weeks and focused on a specific topic or practice. For example: Resting in the Heart: Practices to Grow Compassion for Self and Others and Trauma Informed Yoga for Grief and Loss.
