About
I am a Yoga Alliance certified teacher with certifications in hatha/vinyasa yoga and kundalini yoga. I teach movement practices that are customized to the individual client. I also incorporate meditation and mindfulness techniques in addition to sound healing with crystal and tibetan singing bowls into client sessions. I teach people to make yoga and mindfulness part of their everyday lives to help reduce stress and improve their health.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
I offer a free phone consultation so that we can both see if we are a good match to work together. In addition, I will email a student intake form prior to the first session so that I receive feedback that will enable me to customize the session to fit the student's needs.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I received 200-hour kundalini training from Kundalini Yoga East in NYC. In addition, I received another 200-hour hatha/vinyasa training from Urban Bliss Yoga in Charlotte, NC. I am a registered Yoga Alliance teacher. I am pursuing sound healing training that will allow me to work with bowls directly on the client's body to promote wellness.
What types of students have you worked with?
I have had a variety of yoga students: younger students and older students, beginners and intermediate students, students interested in yoga for physical exercise and those who want more of a spiritual connection to their practice, and people who are drawn to the different modalities that I teach (kundalini, vinyasa/hatha, meditation/mindfulness, and sound healing). However people come to me, I meet them where they are and try to understand their journey and where they want to go with their practice. We work together to develop a practice that is both comfortable and leads to growth.
What advice would you give a student looking to hire a teacher in your area of expertise?
Be open to seeing if there is a connection between yourself and your instructor. I offer a free consultation so that we can see if working together would be mutually beneficial. Ask questions and talk to a prospective instructor about your journey and your goals.
What questions should students think through before talking to teachers about their needs?
Why are you looking for a private yoga or meditation teacher? What do you hope to get out of working with a private teacher? What characteristics are you looking for in a teacher?
