YOGA PHILOSOPHY OR QUOTE THAT YOU LIVE BY: “We think that the point is to pass the test or overcome the problem, but the truth is that things don't really get solved. They come together and they fall apart. Then they come together again and fall apart again. It's just like that. The healing comes from letting there be room for all of this to happen: room for grief, for relief, for misery, for joy.” -Pema Chödrön
FAVORITE THING ABOUT TEACHING YOGA: Helping people becoming increasingly intimate with who they truly are. Giving them time and space to be alive in their own skin, live to the beat of their own natural rhythms, explore their inner world. It’s the privilege of a lifetime.
SONG THAT MAKES YOU WANT TO PRACTICE: Love Song by MARDELEVA
WHAT DOES YOUR IDEAL DAY OFF LOOK LIKE? An empty calendar with my family by my side along for the ride wherever the wind blows. OR skiing...
DESCRIBE YOUR TEACHING STYLE: I call it Awareness-Based Vinyasa. My hope as a teacher is to create a practice that increases your awareness to how you are breathing, how you are moving, how you are thinking, how you are living. We spend so much of our energy focused on the what. My interest lies in how you are moving through this practice, this life.
