FAQ
What inspired you to teach yoga?
Yoga came to my rescue at a time in my life in which I was quite lost and desperate for some direction. It began with awakening a new experience of my body and led to a greater understanding of myself and how I move through life. I feel blessed that over the years I have had the opportunity to bring this practice that has benefitted me so greatly to so many others.
Who are your most influential teachers?
Anyone who has tried my patience
How would you describe your style?
Whatever works. In all seriousness, I see the capacity for the yogic power of transformation in many practices—be it martial arts or tango dancing—and draw freely from them as needed. That said, I have a deep respect for the traditional yogic teachings and enjoy connecting them to contemporary concerns and ideas.
Why do you feel retreats are transformational?
In the words of neuro-scientist Jonah Lehrer, “We travel because we need to, because distance and difference are the secret tonic of creativity. ​When we get home, home is still the same. But something in our mind has changed, and that changes everything.†​
What is your favorite pose to teach?
Savasana, of course!
What is your favorite pose to practice?
Squats. I believe they are the fountain of youth.
What are your favorite places to travel?
Places where I can be close to the people who live there: see how they live, smell their cooking, hear their voices, participate in their customs
