Who/what influences your teaching and practice currently?

In my personal practice I feel very much inspired by mobility based movements and creative, strong sequencing. I love discovering unique ways to link traditional asana with breath + yogic philosophy. Growing with community is most influential on my teachings. I deeply value connecting to my students and creating a safe container for them to feel empowered in their practice.

How do you apply yoga practice to your every day life?

Life is a practice - from motherhood, my marriage, friendships and career. I am constantly linking (or at least attempting to) intentional breath to intentional movement. Some days flow more smoothly than others on and off the mat. I feel grateful to have the teachings of yoga in my life.

What is a fun fact about you?

I have a degree in Middle Eastern Studies and Arabic!

What can students expect from your class?

My classes begin with grounding breath work, intention and the vibration of mantra. We will move through various mobility warm ups in preparation for flow. Each class will move intelligently and fluidly through a strong, creative sequence that will peak in a strength pose followed by a balanced stretch series and peak flexibility pose. Classes come to a close with releasing breath work and savasana. We work hard, have fun and tap into the power of communal movement and breath!

All levels are welcome.
