The nature of balance is in the wobble…

I first experienced yoga at the age of 16. Over the next few years, I experimented here and there with different elements of yoga that I was able to access through fitness videos. But it wasn’t until much later that yoga became a permanent fixture in my life. In 2018, I had the privilege of participating in a yoga retreat with Shari Hochberg, which allowed me to experience yoga in a way that not only helped bring balance to my body, but also my mind and spirit. In 2020, I completed my 200-hour YTT certification at the Studio in Madison, WI through Alex Pfeiffer’s 21st Century Yoga on the Mat program (now accessible through Main Street Yoga Center).

In 2025, I completed Dianne Bondy’s Yoga for Everyone teacher training to further enrich my teaching practice and also completed the Prison Yoga Project’s foundational training to support me to facilitate trauma-informed yoga for incarcerated and justice-impacted communities. While I teach a variety of classes from slow-flow Vinyasa styles, to high-intensity Power Flows, to restorative mindfulness-based sessions, my goal is always for participants to listen to their bodies and do what is right for them in the moment, while respecting those around them.

I acknowledge that the roots of yoga come from the spiritual and living practices founded in South Asia and Africa. I acknowledge that the roots of yoga come from the spiritual and living practices founded in South Asia and Africa. I also acknowledge that as a white woman from the United States, I have been part of the cultural misappropriation and commodification of yoga. As such, I strive to support efforts to decolonize yoga and ensure my yoga offerings are safe, welcoming, and accessible for individuals with all body types, identities, and socio-economic backgrounds.

If you’re interested in doing yoga with me, get in touch anytime to set up a private one-on-one or group class or come to my Wednesday 5pm and Sunday 9am classes at The Goodman Center in Madison, WI!
