In the 25+ years I’ve been practicing, my passion for yoga, especially Iyengar Yoga, has continued to grow.
I was first introduced to yoga in 1985 when a friend invited me to attend my very first class.
I’d always loved to walk, hike, and ride my bike, and enjoyed being physical. I fell in love with yoga right away. It resonated with me in a deep, holistic way.
In the 25+ years I’ve been practicing, my passion for yoga, especially Iyengar Yoga, has continued to grow. The benefits of my practice have grown exponentially. I feel more grounded and aware than ever, and my body feels more vibrant, strong and healthy. For me, yoga is much more than a physical discipline; it is a path of self-discovery, self-realization, and spiritual growth.
For more than three decades, I have studied with Kofi Busia and other senior-level Iyengar teachers in the USA and with the Iyengar family in Pune, India.
I completed my first Iyengar teacher training program 18 years ago and in the years since have completed the third level of certification. I’ve continually worked to deepen my practice and my skills as a teacher. I have taken many special Iyengar training workshops, including Yoga for Scoliosis with back care specialist, Elise Miller. Continuing education is very important to me and I take my own practice very seriously.
I am a Certified Iyengar Yoga Teacher, a Certified Yoga Therapist through the International Association of Yoga Therapists.
In 2013, I received my Yoga for Scoliosis certification. I have completed the four-module course on the Yoga Sutras, its study and practice through the Vidya Institute. For seven years, I was a co-owner of Yoga Within in Aptos.
