MY PHILOSOPHY

It took me many years to unlearn what I had learned to grow as a yoga practitioner.

In traditional Yoga classes, teachers often rely heavily on alignment principles and cues to guide students into specific postures, as if we all have the same bodies and experiences.

This way of teaching gives teachers the power of authority and correctness, but it steals away the students’ true voices of their inner experiences.

What fuels my heart is not about attaining the next advanced Yoga pose, but to find ease, compassion, and bliss through embodied movement, both on the mat and in everyday life. I trust that every person is creative, resourceful and whole.

My practice philosophy is largely inspired by the systems of Yoga, Eastern Psychology, and Somatics. With over 10 years of experience in teaching and training, in 2022 I created Soul to Speak, an integrative Somatic Yoga and Yoga Psychology program to help people feel safe, strong, and alive in the body supporting their inner journey of self-transformation and healing.
