I took my first yoga class from Alvina Haverkamp in 1998. This spark lit a flame that has illuminated my life ever since. Nearly three decades of practice have supported me through pivotal life transitions, natural disasters, displacement, and a devastating loss.
My years of dedicated study have added up to multiple teaching certifications from a variety of programs, including The Temple of Kriya Yoga, Swan River Yoga, and Ananda Seva Mission. My extensive training, coupled with my personal practice, make me a trusted and sought after teacher. My classes weave wisdom and insight with challenging, yet accessible, postural yoga to create a sense of presence that lends itself to deep relaxation and meditation.
In addition to being a yoga educator, class facilitator, and teacher trainer, I am an Ayurvedic Health Coach. I draw upon the wisdom of nature’s rhythm to lead myself and clients into longevity, integrity, fulfillment, and ease.
I continue to be a student of the Vedic tradition. Currently, I study with Kaya Mindlin, Acharya Shunya, and Indu Arora.
Outside my yoga world, I am mama to three grown daughters, and a re-partnered widow navigating menopause with late-diagnosed ADHD. I lean into the teachings everyday to maneuver through the nuance and complexity of my life circumstances.
I'm not a "woo-woo" or "good-vibes only" yoga teacher. I'm a skeptic turned believer who can hunker down with you in the hard times and offer you tools to withstand and overcome.


Adopting a regular yoga practice will be a boon to your physical, mental, emotional, relational, and spiritual health. I know this because it is my embodied truth. As a long time yogi, I carry a wisdom borne of my own mat time. I've walked this path, and I am here to show you the way.
Let go of expectations of what you should or should not be able to do. The poses are not goals to accomplish, but rather, portals to another way of being in your body, and in the world. Let me help you find peace, energy, and power through this practice.
