Yoga Teacher
I’m your mindful wellness guide, based in Washington DC since 2018. I have been teaching yoga since 2012. As a lifelong athlete who has experienced anxiety, PTSD, and addiction, I have been on a journey of movement, self study, and healing for over ten years, developing skills to apply to conditions in life.
My teaching is inspired by vinyasa, hatha, yin, cognitive science, and yoga history. I have also completed 175+ hours of continuing education in meditation, yoga philosophy, respiratory science, anatomy, yoga for children, stress and anxiety management, and peer mediation. I have a passion for creating and facilitating work that prioritizes the well being of Black and Brown people, especially those who identify as queer, trans, nonbinary, and their allies.
I believe we put the skills of yoga to action in life. So practicing these skills is an opportunity to create awareness, to act according to choice and responsibility, and to be kind to self and others. My intention is to facilitate your exploration of awareness, align you with your values, and encourage you to take intentional action.
I use formats such as visualization, breathwork, and functional yoga mobility to address the underlying influences that contribute to varied states of being. My goal is for you to connect to your preconditioned self, moving from mechanical behavior patterns to a more realized way of living. I spend my time in nature, riding my bike, writing, cooking, and serving my community. Ask me about what music I’m listening to, what I’m having for lunch, what I’m reading, or what made me laugh lately.
