I am a violinist who has been practicing yoga since 2005 and teaching since 2015! Most of my classes are Strala Yoga infused, which is a system of natural movement and finding ease through challenge, developed by Tara Stiles and Michael Taylor in New York City. I trained with Black Swan Yoga, Strala Yoga, and am so excited to be sharing my easy-going approach with you! After many years of living in New York City and Chicago, I have returned to my country roots. You'll often spot my various animals making cameos in my videos.
Lots of sneaky (and not so sneaky core work in this twisty, energizing flow with a focus on balance. When things get challenging, stay easy!
