what to expect in my class: dynamic and flowing, focusing on the ashtanga principal of building internal heat as you find the connection between the breath and the physical postures. this style of yoga practice strengthens and tones the body; increases flexibility and coordination; decreases stress and anxiety and increases awareness and emotional well being.

my idea of a good time: relaxing with good friends, spending time outdoors

something you don’t know about me: i've been practicing yoga since 1995 and i used to run a zoo!

       i love how the burn instructors always come around and encourage or help you through a pose. i've never felt silly or like i was being judged if i wasn't doing a  pose right.
