As a teacher my goal is to facilitate an experience where students are so embodied, present and awake that they transcend their self imposed limitations and touch their Soul. It’s crucial for me to create a safe and sacred container so students can dive deep within themselves to discover and uncover what lies within their bodies and have access to the wisdom of their hearts.

Yoga asks us to show up for ourselves, our feelings, our wounds, our discomfort, our frustrations and take responsibility for getting present so we can respond in healthy ways. This is how we heal. This is how we help heal others.

Yoga

…is a system of connection. Asana, meditation, pranayama and yoga philosophy are tools that help us reconnect with the Truth of who we are - which is LOVE. In Sanskrit this divine remembrance is called Smriti. We are not who we think we are most of the time. We are not this body and its capabilities or restrictions. Nor are we this mind and its potential to fantasize and fabricate. We are not the roles we play, the color of our skin, our religion, our political preferences, our sexual orientation or our mistakes. It’s almost blasphemous to confine ourselves with these associations, but the mind tries to identify with anything tangible to help make sense of this material world. Who we REALLY are is Spirit Embodied. Each one of us is an extension of creation. Limitless. Powerful co-creaters with the Universe. Infinite potential. The practices of yoga, in their brilliant simplicity, help increase our awareness so we gain access to information that exists within the body, mind and heart. They give us insight into our resistances, our judgments, our mindlessness, our habits and so much more. As awareness rises the potential for life changing transformation becomes possible.
