I have been practicing yoga since I was 19, when I picked up my mother's copy of Richard Hittleman's Yoga: 28 Day Exercise Plan. Subsequently I began studying Iyengar Yoga; the practice's emphasis on alignment really spoke to me given my background in ballet. Over the years, I have studied with teachers who worked in Ashtanga, Vinyasa, and Classical type yogas. My own practice has become a sort of hybrid, and my teaching follows a more classical approach to yoga with a focus on breath awareness, strengthening the core, balancing the posture, and centering the mind and body. I have been a student at the Yoga Life Institute Yoga Teacher Training program since January 2007. I completed the 200hr teaching certification in 2008, and the 500hr certificate in January 2011. I teach group classes at the following locations in Philadelphia: The Kroc Center The Sporting Club at the Bellevue East Falls Fitness and at Interim House, a residential and outpatient drug and alcohol treatment program facility for women. If you are interested in private yoga instruction for yourself or a group, email me.
