I began practicing meditation techniques in the early 90’s and came to yoga some years after as a physical expression of my meditation. I found the linking of the body movement, mind and breath created a stronger inner peace than my meditation practice. I am able to carry this peace into my daily life, allowing me to be more open and connected with the various roles I play (mother, wife, sister, daughter, employee and friend). The deeper my practice took me the further I wanted to go until in 2003 I signed up for a teacher training with the sole intent to learn more…unexpectedly I came out wanting to give back what I get from my practice and have been fortunate enough to be able to do just that.
I completed my 200 hour RYT at the eclectic Frog Pond Yoga Centre in Princeton, MA. I then went on to complete Rhythmic Vinyasa Flow training with Shiva Rae, Amrit Yoga Advanced Training for Teachers from All Traditions with Yogi Amrit Desai, Yoga Nidra with Yogi Amrit Desai as well as becoming a USUI SHIKI RYOHO First Degree Reiki Practitioner. I continue to be an avid student and attend many workshops and classes of various styles across the country.
