I have been studying dance
and physical movement and alignment since age eight.
I have always been fascinated
by the body, how it physically moves and ways
to maintain optimum health and feel great!
In Fall 2005 I decided to attend my first yoga instructor
course. I graduated from yoga instructor training to
teach hot yoga in November of 2005 and began teaching
the very next day!
I studied under Bikrram Choudroy
in Beverly Hills. My training was an intensive
three-month program. It felt
like a year packed into a short time period!
I have a love of all movement
and hatha yoga. I particularly fell in love with
this series because it makes you
feel so good and one can accomplish a lot in a
relatively short time. The 90-minute series I
teach is like an
all over body-mind tune up. So no matter what
ails you when you come to class, it will get worked.
This
is unlike other classes where one day the teacher
might decide to work hips and another day shoulders,
so if
you show up with a tense neck or back you feel
like you have missed out. EVERYONE benefits from
this series.
EVERTHING gets worked in EVERY class. The focus is the entire body, head to toe, bones to skin. I also like that it is practiced in a HOT room.
My area of study prior to teaching yoga was skin
care, so any time you sweat, you are working the
LARGEST
ORGAN in your body, the skin! It's great. The series
tones your muscles, engages your mind
and
reaches every ligament, tendon and bone, as well
as every organ and organ relationship.
