I began practicing yoga in San Francisco in 2000 and teaching in
2005. As my practice grew, the desire to deeply understand the
meaning and application of the asanas and yoga philosophy inspired
me to complete the 500-hour Advanced Studies Teacher in Training
program at the Iyengar Institute of San Francisco, where I apprenticed
with Joe Naudzunas. Manouso Manos is currently my mentor teacher.
Maintaining an active home practice with continuing study of the
Bhagavadgita and Yoga Sutras of Patanjali, keeps the desire to pursue
this path fresh...
More and more people are curious and endeavouring, drawn to the
practice of yoga, which, at a glance, can be seen as mere physical
exercise, perhaps for only certain body and personality types. This is
wholly false. Yoga is for anyone, any body, during any phase of life.
By opening ourselves to yoga we are seeking and accessing our more
true and highest potential. This is not contingent on physical ability
but on the desire and willingness to move toward that higher purpose
where in doing so, true beauty and contentment are to be found. Yoga
is for all people. I welcome and encourage all walks of life and ability
to my classes.
Iyengar yoga has been one of the vehicles to profound transformation
during my years of teaching, practicing and study. I have experienced
great resilience through health challenges and tools for maintaining
the return of that health. My hope for students is to find for themselves
how Iyengar yoga can enrich their lives and to live their practice well.
