There IS HOPE!
​
And it all starts by taking your health into your own hands. Your body is talking to you all the time. It’s time to listen!!
Embarking on this path is life-altering, and I think most of us benefit with help and someone to hold our hand. I am your partner, here to support you on your journey to health and wellness.
​
I started doing yoga in California in 1984. It was a six–month course from 6–9am, five days a week! I never dreamed of teaching yoga—I was just fascinated by the history and science of it all. I finished the course only to have just scratched the surface of all there is to know.
Fast forward to today… I’ve taught thousands of classes and continue to learn and change as I go. I have always studied other teachers but, must say,
my own experience has taught me the most. Having taught and practiced for
45 years, teaching three to five classes a day, I am a living testament for health and vitality. My classes include stretching, strength and core work, balancing and learning how to self-calm using relaxation and breathwork techniques.
now for my theory
Getting your body back—getting flexible and stronger is
100% doable—you just have to be smart about it.
I believe somewhere around the age of 50, we all have to shift the focus
to include more and more REJUVENATION! So many people want hard, hot, fast. I understand that. You can do that up to a point but, at some point,
if you don’t know it— you will create breakdown. That is where injuries and pain come in. I’ve seen it a hundred times. You have to discover YOUR edge—that place where you bump into your “stop point”. Once you feel and know that,
you are good to go. You can work as hard as you want, but you’ve got to know when to back off BEFORE you do damage. The word “oxidation” is as applicable to the body as rust is to metal.​
Because I have had the opportunity to work with so many people of all ages,
I have a deep understanding I bring to every class, and every participant.
I particularly love observing progress in working with clients at all levels because, most of the time, they are not aware of HOW MUCH flexibility and strength they can recover in a very short time. It’s almost shocking and so much fun to watch!​
So, whether you’re looking for an instructor, a coach, or a workout buddy,
come visit and we’ll chat.

I can’t wait to meet you!
