In 2008 I began my 200 hr yoga teacher training with Rolf Gates followed by 300 additional hours completed at Kaia Yoga in 2012. During this training, we were exposed to experts in sanskrit, anatomy, philosophy, sequencing and alignment just to name a few. Since then, I have viewed yoga as a craft that can be honed and improved upon from the perspective of a student and teacher. It is an ongoing learning process of awareness and clarity. My intention as a teacher is to give students a safe place to connect everything going on in their body, mind and emotions. Perhaps a few hours here and a few hours there and ultimately a comfort level being connected to their true selves and can share the bounty of gifts they have with everyone in their life. Yoga is magical in that way.
