WHY YOGA
I have always been drawn to yoga philosophy, adopting certain ideas of being more mindful in my thoughts has helped me to become more balanced in my emotions as well. Viewing yoga postures and understanding how the body can become more or less flexible with practice (or lack of) has led me on a path of pursuing yoga as a physical wellness lifestyle and gradually deepening my personal practice has been a rewarding journey of growth and evolution. My passion for the transformative effects of yoga on the mind, body and spirit drives me to share these rewards with others to encourage people to live a more personally fulfilling life. I favor embracing individual expression as we are all unique and should be celebrated in our uniqueness and personal power. Yoga is a fascinating pathway that is over 10,000 years in the making that leads us to a deeper understanding of our minds, our physical capabilities, and our ability to impact our community with love and wellness.
