Movement has always been a big part of my life. For as long as I can remember I have experimented with making shapes with my body.

 

In my teens I began pursuing a career in the performing arts and studied dance, movement, contact improvisation and other physical modalities.

 

After the birth of my first child I found a Yoga video on VHS for $1 at a yard sale and I was hooked. Regular yoga practice brought me a sense of peace and confidence I had never known before, and it allowed me to begin to truly know myself.

 

I still have that video.

 

In 2015, my relationship with yoga lead me to learn to teach. After participating in a five month long intensive training program I became a certified yoga instructor recognized by the Canadian Yoga Alliance.

 

My own life experience has led the way to a deeply mindful practice.

 

I am the mother of four fantastic kids, I have battled with extreme back pain due to an injury that is over two decades old, and I have had my own struggles with stress, depression and anxiety.

 

Through it all, I have had yoga and meditation.

 

I continue to grow and learn by practicing, and attending workshops, conferences, and teacher training yearly. I am currently in training to become a certified Yoga Therapist.

 

I am honoured to share what I have learned with you.
