Training & Teaching

Who I Am

I discovered yoga while in college.  I was at UCLA and looking for different ways to be active and stretch. I spent much of my time hunched over books, studying, and my back and shoulders started to pay the price. So I signed up for a yoga class. What I remember most about that first class was how good it made me feel. I felt strong and centered. I felt calm and relaxed.  Most importantly I felt open.  I continued my yoga practice, learning the alignment benefits of Iyengar yoga, whose focus on alignment keeps us safe in poses and while transitioning through them. I then found myself enjoying the flow (and sweat) of a Power Yoga class knowing the importance of balancing my alignment practice with the fun and playfulness from a Power Yoga class.
