I have been practicing and teaching yoga for over six years. As a college athlete, I began taking yoga classes as a compliment to my sport, but I found myself coming back to class for yoga's ability to help me let go of my worries and relieve stress. I completed my 200 hour teacher training at Fresh Yoga, a donation-based and trauma-informed studio in New Haven, CT, with the hope that I would be able to share yoga's powerful gift with all those who need it. I recently completed an additional training focused on yoga nidra and restorative yoga at White Lotus Therapeutics in Denver, CO. My classes are often focused on rest and healing. I like to give students time to breathe, feel each of the poses, and be intentional with their flow. I incorporate breathwork and emphasize mindfulness in all of my classes.
