I discovered Yoga in 2001 while I was in college. I immediately realized the power of Yoga and the influence it would have on my life. Yoga brought me, and still does to this day, a sense of calming tranquility that I often struggle to find throughout my day. As my work life is constantly changing,​ yoga helps maintain my sanity.

Since my first Yoga class in Chico, my life path has taken me down many different roads. I graduated college with an Anthropology degree from CSU, Chico. Following graduation, I’ve lived and worked in Las Vegas, the Bay Area, Northern Italy and ​back again to to the Bay Area to our lovely community of Alameda. I’ve taken so much with me and learned so much about myself with everyplace I’ve been. And I am ever grateful to every person I crossed paths with because they are all a part of who I am today, no matter how brief the encounter.

Upon my return to the Bay Area, I decided to return to my very first Yoga Instructor, Kamie Noelani Loeser. I completed a 200 hr. teacher training course in May of 2012 through the Northern California Yoga Institute and am a registered yoga instructor with Yoga Alliance. Since then, I've continued my training with NorCal Yoga Institute through their 500hr training program. I've also completed a Yoga for Kids training, Prenatal Teacher Training, and Yoga for Pelvic Floor.

Like so many, I have struggled through the life of the 2020 Covid-19 pandemic. My personal yoga and meditation practice kept me sane while dealing with the stress of the world affairs, shelter-in-place, and life during a pandemic with a 5/6 year old. After taking care of myself and my family, I ventured into the world of online yoga teaching. It's been a strange new world, and although I am continuing my online class, I am excited to return to in-person teaching too!
