I have been a practicing yogi for the last 16 years, but consistently for the last 6 years. 

In 2017 I completed my 200 hour YTT with Healthy Mind, Body, and Soul. In 2019, I pursued my 300 hour YTT with Yoga 108| School of Yoga. During my 200 hour training I also received my Curvy Yoga Certification and specialized in kids yoga as well. As my special project in 300 hour, I ventured down Interstate 71 to train with Yoga on High in Columbus. I participated in their Urban Zen Integrative Yoga Therapy training. I am also a Reiki Master. 

As a lifelong learner, I committed to studying the chakras and psychology--this was and is an integral part of the practice. All that I have learned from my amazing trainings and mentors are incorporated into the classes I teach here at Bliss. I believe yin and restorative allow us to slow down and reconnect with ourselves. Healing is an inside job and as a teacher, my job is to hold space and bear witness so you can find what you need on your mat. 

When I am not immersed in yoga or history books I am teaching Social Studies. My free time is spent with my two boys, ages 12 and 10. They are what keep me young-ish and very active. I love to be in nature so I am always walking and doing yard work. Even the teacher needs to be the student so you can find me in various yoga classes on the mat, doing the work...when the student is ready, the teacher appears.

I look forward to sharing my practice with you.
