Your Yoga Education Ally
More than twenty-five years ago, I took my first yoga class and was hooked. Finally, a practice that got me out of my head and into my body. Yoga became a safe space to feel, challenge myself, and reconnect.
Since 2003, I’ve immersed myself in education and the yoga business: managing studios and teachers, creating and leading teacher trainings, hiring and coaching faculty, auditioning and mentoring teachers, creating new programs and workshops, supporting the growth of two multi-location, national yoga companies (Yoga Works and YYoga), and earning my Masters in Instructional Systems and Learning Technology.
My mission is to share what I know – about education, yoga, and business – to help teachers and studios elevate their offerings, share their passion, and bring more yoga into the world.
