After dabbling in various forms of yoga over the years, I decided I wanted a more committed daily practice. A prayer to the “powers-that-be” to find this delivered me to Ashtanga yoga teacher training with David Swenson, in Florida in November 1999.

I fell in love with this style and keep returning to it as my primary discipline. Students all over Ottawa and Chelsea know me from my years of teaching at Rama Lotus Yoga Center, Santosha Yoga, Corps Esprit in Hull, La Grange in Wakefield, corporate classes, community centres, schools and even in my home!

Being an Energy Healer in private practice brings a special awareness of how to create and hold sacred space in my classes. I also spent a Winter in Costa Rica teaching classes and offering healing treatments at Pura Vida Spa.

I get excited about people about taking care of themselves. It brings me great joy to see all ages, shapes, and genders coming to my classes to take a little time to feel good. I teach from this place: not to be perfect, but to derive pleasure from your yoga practice and its results. Yoga is a delightful part of my daily self-care.

I'm an expert at tailoring classes to the needs of my students, from older or injured, pregnant to power. I have taught Bikram, Power, Ashtanga, Pre-natal, Baby and Mom Postnatal, and Classical Hatha styles.

I am currently an ambassador for the clothing store Lululemon Athletica in Westboro.
