For the past 6 years I have lived in Rotterdam, Netherlands where I received my certification in Anusara, taught yoga and attended workshops by numerous international teachers and scholars including: Sianna Sherman, Deb Neubauer, Jim and Ruth Bernart, Desiree Rambaugh, Carlos Pomeda,  Bill Mahonny, Jayendra Hanley. I stepped into my first class 12 years ago but didnt find a steady practice until I moved abroad. Nothing has remained the same within my asana practice and has evolved enormously, specifically this last year. After being diagnosed with cancer and now being in remission my perspective of the body and movement has never been the same. I craved the intensity of inversions and testing my limits, often going beyond them. But now I marvel at the breath, the centimeter movements in downdog that open my eyes to new sensations, the profoundness of being a beginner and a deeper appreciation for the intricate workings of our body. I integrate playfullness, philosophy, music, safety and above all compassion in my yoga lessons. If there is one thing I know for sure, is that I really dont know and humbily accept this space of unknown with open arms.
