ABOUT

I stepped into my first yoga class at the age of 17. During my various career arcs, first as Registered Nurse and then as a Public Defender, I was drawn to movement as a way of recharging and restoring my mental and physical well being. I spent years practicing Brazilian dance, and performing in San Francisco’s Carnival every year, as well as Ashtanga and many other styles of Hatha Yoga.

In 2006, while recovering from a major surgery, I experienced first hand the therapeutic benefits of Iyengar Yoga. Moreover, I began to realize that clear instructions and attention to detail were something that had been missing in my other yoga classes; I felt like I was actually being taught yoga for the first time! My own practice continues to evolve but I remain devoted to Iyengar Yoga for its unique abilities to transform both the inner and outer aspects of the body. I am a Level II CIYT Intermediate Certified Iyengar Yoga Teacher and a C-IAYT Certified Yoga Therapist. I teach public classes in San Francisco.
