I started practicing Bikram Yoga in the year 1999 and practiced for 18 months before I realized that I wanted to be certified in the practice. I just knew that this was going to be a part of my life forever. I attended the training in Los Angeles and was certified in the spring of 2001. Since then, I’ve assisted at many of the subsequent teacher trainings over the years and have taught nationally in many studios across the U.S. over the last 23 years.
As an actor and former dancer, I have recovered from many injuries and surgeries and I attest to the 26 and 2 yoga series as my medicine, both physically and mentally.
As an instructor, I truly believe that all the personal adversities I’ve gone through over the years have made me an even stronger and more compassionate teacher. It is such a gift to be able to pass on this lineage of yoga and to be a part of one’s healing process to better physical, mental and emotional health!
