I am so thrilled you found me! As a Global Artist and activist past 30 plus years I have been assisting people into personal growth, self love and compassion through healing arts. I have added The beautiful healing tool of yoga for the past several years as well. My passion for helping others I feel stems deep from my early childhood years in foster care until I was 5 years old and my insane passion for healing my own traumas and spiritual growth.
When I set out to become a yoga teacher it was for one reason and one reason only...to help people heal mentally and physically through the practice of "Authentic healing yoga". That being said I set out for the birth place and home land of " REAL YOGA" India. My first visit to India was in 2009 for a 8 month life altering journey, and since then I have been back three times for yoga teacher trainings and working with children through art and love. My teacher trainings also have taken me to Thailand, Mexico and here in the USA with 3 of the most amazing Teachers in yoga I the USA for “. Off Matt into The WORLD “ with Sean Corn, Suzanne Sterling & HALA KHOURI in 2020.
I have several different certifications in holistic Hatha yoga, yoga therapy, meditation, yoga nidra and pain to peace yoga, The art of rest and courses to heal past trauma And Yoga Activism to end global division, violence and fear.
Being an empath, activist and spiritualist for the entirety of my life, I decided to make the study of mental health, substance abuse, disease, hormone imbalance and physical ailments my point of focus In yoga, as well as just having fun Without competition.
I have always just wanted to make everything and everyone feel better, and through my own life’s struggles found some amazing tools that actually help.
For the past several years my focus of teaching has mainly been geared towards sharing tools in yoga and art to help with anxiety & depression, substance abuse, PTSD, Parkinson’s relief, hormonal balance, mental health, Trauma & just pure emotional release and joy!
I also teach yoga to big corporations like Netflix, Shopify, women’s empowerment groups ect...I really enjoy these groups because many of the students are in high stress positions and I am able to share a few tools to help them throughout their days to make them just a little sweeter, fun and joy filled!
A few points of interest from questions I am constantly presented with.
No, Yoga is not a religion.Yes yoga is for everybody.
Yoga is about the breath not acrobatics in the gym!Yes you can be immobile to practice yoga.
Yes you can get a nice physique but, yoga is to help us calm and heal our body and mind through the mind and breath. Yes yoga can help you heal!“If you can breath you can do yoga."
