Class Types: Ashtanga, Resistance Stretch, Co-owner

I’ve always had an affinity for Yoga, even from before I really knew anything about it. On the one hand, it’s a practice and on the other, it invites an ongoing inquiry into life and the universe which inspires more study, more practice and more insights.

I never planned to teach Yoga, but it happened, and then my partnership with Heidi and Chill Yoga happened and that was over 10 years ago. I love how we’ve become a community of all ages, and my goal in class is to provide a friendly, supportive space for each student to either begin or develop their practice.

For the most part, my practice has been Ashtanga based, and I’ve been fortunate to study with a few of its senior teachers including David Swenson, Nancy Gilgoff, Joanne and Mark Darby. I have also been inspired by and immersed in Bob Cooley’s work, The Genius of Flexibility, which is a specific type of resistance stretching that releases fascial tension, and balances the meridians.
