Making yoga work for Real People
Practice Home or Away When you have time
If you are apprehensive about trying some yoga moves you are in a great place here. What brought me to teaching yoga is just the same feeling, the belief that it’s not for my super sensitive chronically ill body.
None of the video classes I teach will have crazy poses where you tie yourself in knots, you won’t need to do a hand/ head stand or any of the other crazy inversion arm balances you find on social media – that is acrobatics for Instagram not a necessary part of yoga!

Those of us who are imperfect, maybe we’re not super fit, a human contortionist or vegetarian.
People like you – “come as you are!”

Yes, you can be a yogi without going upside down.
Here you will get a highly committed, engaged, teacher to work with you as you learn Yoga to heal yourself so you can be more present for your partner, family, community, and the world.
I teach authentically from the heart with a focus to make Yoga inclusive and accessible, even for you. If you can’t make any of the videos work for you, drop me a line and tell me about your experience, after all it is slightly different teaching you on screen than having you in front of me where I can respond immediately to what is presented to me in each moment. I deeply care about you having a wonderful experience and would be delighted to be with you on your yoga journey every step of the way.
