One of my teachers said that we learn to teach, but we teach to learn. I have found this to be very true, and I am grateful for all the lessons I have absorbed over the years.
I believe that yoga and life should be experienced with a soft determination, huge sense of play, and open compassion. My yoga practice began many years ago, and it continues to challenge and open me to a freedom I hadn’t imagined. My inspiration comes from the everyday experience, witnessing a student breaking down their barriers on the mat, watching people dissolve into laughter, hearing someone take an awesome breath in and out. I teach Power, Hot, Yin/Meditation and Kids Yoga classes, and no matter what class you take with me, I will ask you to come up to your edge, find your breath, and realise that you are okay. I am currently training to be an Anusara Inspired Teacher, and continue to study whenever possible. When I am not on the mat, I am working with my various projects like the Yoga4Kidz Society, or can be found learning from and teaching my two sons how to find bliss in the everymoment, practicing laughter yoga whenever possible!
