WHY I TEACH 
I teach to share the amazing benefits of yoga with others. I feel very  strongly that in this confused, chaotic time we all need to be able to find  balance. Yoga gives us a way to feel a sense of well-being and teaches us to  access inner peace, which creates that balance. It is also a wonderful way to  have a healthy, strong, flexible body, allowing us to function better in our  lives. Yoga has been a great gift in my life, and it is a joyful experience  to share it with others.

  MY EXPERIENCE
I have practiced yoga since 1985, and began teaching in 1998. I have completed five Intensive Teacher Trainings in Iyengar Style Yoga at The Yoga Institute of Miami  with Bobbi Goldin. I have also taken intensive workshops with Rodney Yee, Dean Lerner, Aadil Palkhivala and Felicity Green. I am a YogaKids ® Facilitator.  YogaKids® is a nationally recognized educational program that teaches children through yoga. It incorporates the Multiple Intelligence theory of learning, and is a wonderfully fun program for children*. I believe we never stop learning, so I continue to study and practice in the Iyengar tradition, and I am registered with Yoga Alliance.

The Iyengar Style, is focused on providing detailed instruction for correct body alignment. This is an excellent style of yoga for all beginners, and for anyone with flexibility limitations, as well as students who are prone to injury. 

  ABOUT CLASSES
My classes are appropriate for beginners and continuing students. Classes are 1 and 1/2 hours long and always include relaxation.  I provide a comfortable safe environment where the emphasis is on exploring the postures and our experience of them. I encourage students to honor their bodies and approach yoga with curious and objective attitude. My hope is to inspire my students to go deeper into the experience of yoga.  An anonymous quote says, "No matter what our attempts to inform, it is our ability to inspire that makes the difference."
