About me
I am deeply passionate about empowering other people to build confidence, compassion, and their best life by finding the good in every day. I believe that mindfulness is the antidote to our digital age of screens and social media. It is how we get in touch with the present moment, build more joy into our days, and make lasting changes in our brains that allow us to build optimism into our natural way of thinking. I believe that compassion and confidence can be fostered through present moment awareness and mindfulness tools and activities because i have seen it work for thousands of students.
As for me, I love all things creative: art, dance, music, and theatre. I grew up a theatre kid, became a film maker, and then became a photographer. Yoga was my path into learning about mindfulness, positivity, and optimism, which is something that does not come naturally to me. I have certifications in yoga and mindfulness and have studied Positive Psychology, the Science of Happiness, and Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction. I incorporate all of this training and research into all my teachings.
Positive Change
My goal is to bring more joy and positivity to you, your school, or company through mindfulness and optimism. It all began in my own home and I have passed it onto thousands of students since via my former company, Mud Flower Yoga. I have worked with teachers, students, and families bringing mindfulness into schools and well as corporations.
I teach with irreverence, truth, humor, creativity, energy, and big-hearted themes inspired by life and its ups and downs. I believe that everyone is creative, there is no such thing as failure, and age is just a number. My hope is that my students leave my class feeling refreshed, inspired, energized, and with a seed of hope and positivity to carry them through the day, week, or month ahead of them.
