Yoga came into my life through curiosity and dreams.

Growing up, there weren’t any yoga studios in my small town. My community rejected yoga, and I wanted to understand why.

I became a young adult right as the Pandemic began, so I started practicing on YouTube. As soon as the restrictions were lifted, it was clear to me that I needed to find a teacher.

Luckily, there was a studio across the street from my apartment. I had no idea what I was getting myself into, but I showed up and found what I was looking for.

I practiced with my teachers back home for three years and have continued practicing by dropping in when I visit or streaming. I decided to enroll in the teacher training because yoga had guided me and healed me through a difficult time in my life.

My goal is to share that practice with others and help them understand the power that is always with us. My practice is crucial to healing my body, mind, and spirit. I have chosen to be a student of yoga for the rest of my life and learn everywhere I go.
