values

In my yoga classes, there are three key principles I want to transmit to my students. The first is to create a well-paced class for students to have both space and time to breathe fully throughout the duration of the practice. The second is to work towards a sense of balance. I aim to create yoga sequences that are well-rounded, encourage an even distribution of effort and sensation in poses, and promote an equilibrium between body and mind. A balanced yoga practice is a sustainable practice. The third key principle is to allow students to develop an awareness of the physical intelligence of their own bodies, building strength, flexibility and confidence.

about

I grew up in Monterey, on the central coast of California, and moved across the country to Massachusetts where I graduated from Williams College with a degree in Studio Art and Biology. I was in my early twenties when I first tried yoga. My yoga journey started in 2001 at an artist residency in Cyprus where a friend taught me a few sun salutations between sessions in the art studio. From then on, I continued to cultivate my yoga practice, taking classes and attending workshops in parallel to my art career. I completed both a Masters in Art in Madrid, as well as a Masters in Fine Arts from Transart Institute (Berlin/New York). In 2015 I received my 200HR Vinyasa Yoga Teacher Training Certification from Yoga Moves in Utrecht. After becoming a full-time yoga teacher, I completed Jason Crandell’s 300HR Advanced Teacher Training at Triyoga in London. As someone who is naturally curious and loves self-inquiry, I hone my yoga teaching skills regularly through continued professional development. I live in Belgium where I teach foundations, hatha, flow, yin and restorative yoga. I regularly teach workshops and masterclasses and have co-taught 200HR yoga teacher trainings at Yoga Room.
