I first came to yoga seeking relief from tight muscles after years of distance running but stayed for the physical discipline and athletic conditioning it brought.

After more than six years of dedicated practice in Vinyasa and Bikram traditions, I completed my 200-hour teacher training in 2023 to better understand the connection between movement, breath, and the intention behind each pose. As my path evolved, so did my practice, shifting from a physical focus to a more expansive exploration of body, breath, and spirit.

I’m now deepening my studies through trauma-informed yoga and embodied movement education, with the intention of eventually facilitating trauma-sensitive spaces rooted in agency, presence, and care. My work is further shaped by my connection to ancestral practices, nature-based ritual, and a reverence for the wisdom of the nervous system.

I guide with the belief that healing is not linear and that our mats can become sacred ground for remembering, releasing, and reclaiming. Through this lens, I hold space for others to explore their practice with depth, agency, and curiosity, inviting a return to wholeness, one breath at a time.

Whether you are new to the mat or returning with intention, you are welcome here, just as you are.
