| I'm a 500-hr certified yoga teacher who will forever be a yoga student. Underneath all the myriads of styles, I believe yoga is a way to get to know our own body and mind. I provide the techniques and information to support your wellbeing, mentally and physically. This is how I do it:
I primarily focus on techniques and alignment based on anatomy and kinesiology principles, basically, how we re built, and how we move.
I m always watching out for safety and injury prevention. I m all about sustainability (I can t help it, I m from Seattle). I believe in learning the yoga poses in a way that you can enjoy doing them for a long time. As a klutz who like to run, surf, and climb, I ve had my fair share of getting hurt and learning to recover, so I m vigilant of working to prevent and rehab from injuries. As they say on the back of those large trucks: safety is my priority.
I m practicing to restore Mindfulness. Yoga helps with managing our energy. Too much, and we re jittery. Too little, and we re lethargic. Since yoga is about making sure we have good gas running in our tank, in addition to teaching and practicing active yoga poses, I balance that with Restorative Yoga to counter the pace and demand of our modern life. I believe in navel-gazing, and meditation, as a cornerstone of a yoga practice. |
