My Teaching Style

We all arrive on our mats with a different intention. My goal with each and every class is to have you leave feeling a little better than you did before you arrived. I teach playful fl ows with fun tunes. We’ll find opportunities to find your edge and create space for what you need in your practice. Think of it as a dance between control and surrender. Let's flow!

Experience

I’ve been a student of yoga for many years (let’s not get into specifics). I became certified in early 2016 through Core Essence Yoga in downtown Milwaukee with a focus on Vinyasa Flow. Since then, I’ve taught at multiple studios and fitness centers throughout the North Shore. I’m super excited to get back to teaching where it all began...

Favorite Pose

Hmm, if I had to choose one it’d have to be Half Moon. There’s so much happening in this pose. Not only does it leave me feeling grounded, simultaneously I feel lifted and balanced. It is just one of those poses that never gets old. There’s always something new to discover and work on in this pose.

Favorite Quote

"It only takes a reminder to breathe, a moment to be still, and just like that, something in me settles, softens, makes space for imperfection. The harsh voice of judgment drops to a whisper and I remember again that life isn’t a relay race; that we will all cross the fi nish line; that waking up to life is what we were born for. As many times as I forget, catch myself charging forward without even knowing where I’m going, that many times I can make the choice to stop, to breathe, and be, and walk slowly into the mystery."

Why I Love Dragonfly

Back when I was still dabbling in yoga I would practice at Dragonfly. When life got really challenging it was here that gave me the opportunity to be present in my body. I didn’t know how much I needed that at the time. It has been a place to explore, reset and leave to take on the outside world with a better outlook.

Little Known Fact About Me

I have four amazing children, one well behaved dog and another that is a work in progress. I also have a pretty cool husband and together we own and operate a restaurant. Oh, and I love yoga.
