As a former marathoner, I dabbled in yoga and Pilates for about 14 years on and off as a way to complement my running. After stepping into Anchorage Yoga four years ago I fell in love with yoga especially the Hot classes. Not only did I discover a beautiful supportive community at AY , I uncovered a deep desire within myself to know more about this fascinating practice. My aha moment came while attending Bikram yoga class with Rick. I found that for the first time “maybe every” I was able to calm my mind for 90 minutes with no outside distraction. In that moment I knew I wanted to teach…I needed to teach. In the fall of 2014 I attended the Bikram Yoga Teacher's Training in Thailand, since then I continue to learn and find daily inspiration from my fellow teachers and students. I live and breathe yoga, on and off the mat, and I want to share my love for Bikram yoga with anyone and everyone. Yoga is for everybody at any stage of life and that is why the practice is so timeless. I look forward to practicing with you.
