my story
Movement and creativity have always been central to my life.
My passion for movement first took root as a child gymnast, where I developed a deep love for the strength and grace that the body is capable of. Later, as I grew older, I sought something more—a practice that would not only challenge me physically but also nourish my heart and mind. Yoga entered my life as a gentle invitation to a physical practice that evolved into a profound journey of holistic wellness and healing. The mindful connection of breath and movement became a way to tend to my body, heart, and mind—something I then knew I needed to share with others.
My love for the arts was born in childhood as well - a meditative, unfolding process of discovering and creating from within. My passion for creating, and admiration of those who shared this gift with me, led me to a Masters of Fine Arts in Art Education.
Decades later, I have been blessed with the gift of sharing the beauty and power of both yoga and art with others. From guiding pregnant women to seniors (full of wisdom); from children’s music festivals to refugees at an NGO; from teaching in American schools, to students in South America; each encounter, each touch or sharing of story, has enriched my own life deeply.
I’ve come to see yoga and art as kindred practices, beautifully intertwined. Each offers unique paths for personal growth, healing and transformation; unique ways to explore self-expression and deepen our connection to the world around us and to one another.
From the Rocky Mountains of Colorado to Sweden, in the studio or the classroom, at a festival or event, online, or teaching a private lesson in your home, my hope is to inspire, support, and walk alongside you on your own unique journey. I look forward to joining you as we explore creativity, wellness, and transformation together.
