welcome

Whether we met in a hostel lobby somewhere in the world or you’re an old friend from home, I’m so glad to have you here.

The practices shared in this virtual space are intended to foster a sense of home inside yourself - the kind of home that follows you wherever you go, no matter how far.

May your practice be of benefit to yourself and, by way of yourself, of benefit to others.

  • My method of teaching asana (the physical practice of yoga) is not based in identifying a “right” vs “wrong” expression of each pose.

    Instead, I guide you through a search for the variation that offers the most relevant benefits for you at that time.

    I’ve found this style of teaching to strengthen intuition, foster empowerment and grow trust in oneself.

  • After a few adventurous months living in my converted Jeep, I flew back to Kansas for a quick trip home that turned into a 3 month solo backpacking adventure across Eastern Europe. Oops!

    Halfway through, I found myself at an incredible hostel in Portugal where I pitched the idea of hosting yoga classes. They were a huge hit so we decided I would return a few weeks later to offer more.

    All of a sudden it started to feel like this lifestyle I had just stumbled upon could actually be sustainable long term and honestly, I haven’t looked back since.

    Today, I continue on this journey of slow travel, sharing yoga everywhere I go. My goal is to continue exploring new cultures, expanding my perspectives in pursuit of becoming a better human, and making meaningful connections everywhere I go.

  • My mom has been a yogi for as long as I can remember. I went to my first class with her when I was about 12 and was NOT a fan which is of course, hilarious to look back on.

    I started dance when I was 3 and continued training, performing and competing all through my childhood. After high school, I moved to Las Vegas to dance professionally. My short time in the entertainment industry left my mental and physical health in a conceringly fragile state and that’s where yoga comes in. My practice really saved me in those days.

    In 2018 I moved to Phoenix, Arizona to get my 200 hour teaching certification in Vinyasa Yoga. Since then, I’ve been teaching many classes each week in various settings to diverse demographics. I feel so lucky to share the practices that gave me the life I get to live now.
