Yoga is in every aspect of my life. My practice has provided for me the space to breathe and connect to my body and spirit with a level of compassion and acceptance I had never previously had. From the moment I began, I embraced the practice wholeheartedly, and wanted to share this with others.

My training and inspiration began at Peachtree Yoga Center in Atlanta with Graham Fowler. I went on to train extensively with Tias Little, Doug Keller, Sean Tebor, Baron Baptiste , Mark White, and Sara Powers. An impactful influance from Stacy Dockins from the Yoga Project, Live Love Teach Phillip Urso, and Tim Miller in the Ashtanga system.

I have been a liscensed Massage Therapist since 1995 and have a great passion for the human body in movement, anatomy, alignment, and spirit, most importantly using this practice as therapy. My passion is to facilitate my students empowerment, realizing their unknown potentials. 

I teach a breath and body based vinyasa flow class that is created in the moment, based on who is in the room. Students are encouraged to seek both challenge and joy, and to go deeper into relaxation so they may leave feeling open to whatever next comes their way.

I founded Jiva Yoga in 2001 and am happy to co-own with my husband Ken, and with the support of such an amazing team we thrive.

Please join me in class!
