Fitness has been a big part of my life since college beginning with cardio, kickboxing and yoga videos at home. Eventually I moved my fitness practice to a gym taking spin and cross-fit classes and I found the group fitness setting to be much more enjoyable. When I experienced an injury it sent me looking for a low-impact workout that eventually led me to Barre. I fell in love with it immediately and soon after became an instructor which I have been doing since 2017. I absolutely love teaching and helping to motivate others in their physical fitness journey.
A friend invited me to take a hot power yoga class which I wasn't excited about and boy was I wrong! I was instantly hooked. The way it made my muscles feel was not like your typical sweaty workout - it was exhilarating and detoxifying while bringing some Zen to my inner-self. I decided that yoga is for life and completed teacher training for my RYT 200 in May 2022. My teaching interest is in Power and Yin as the two complement each other beautifully.
