Namaste

I fell in love with movement at the age of 2 and a 1/2 when I took my first dance class. I spent years studying ballet, lyrical, modern, jazz, hip hop, tap, and more, competing and performing across the country. (I spent a few years performing as Elmo at Sesame Place in Langhorne, PA!) Along the way I also became immersed in competitive cheerleading, having cheered and coached at the collegiate level during my time at Temple University where I also earned a minor in Dance Movement and Theory and a major in Communications. Continuing my dance path, I spent some time as an ACE-certified group fitness instructor teaching dance at Bally's Total Fitness (now AFC Fitness) in NYC. 

​

Years later my movement journey led me to my new passion, yoga. I completed a 200HR RYT certification in 2019 where I began teaching in yoga in premiere studios in NYC and more recently in my hometown of Bucks County, PA.  In the summer of 2023, I felt a call to continue my yoga studies, and am currently on my journey to completing my 500 HR LOAY (Life of a Yogi) certification in Dharma Yoga passed on from my guru, Sri Dharma Mittra, belovedly called the 'teacher's teacher', often known for his Master Yoga Chart of 908 Postures. This Hatha Raja style of yoga is a complete practice incorporating Asana (physical poses), Pranayama (breathwork), Yoga Nidra (yogic sleep/relaxation), and Dharana / Dhyana (concentration/meditation) in each class. It's a traditional, classic lineage based upon the Ashtanga 8 Limbs and invites us to go inward, guiding our way towards Self Realization.
