About Me
I had heart bypass surgery (family genes) in 2006 and afterwards my surgeon said "you gave yourself 15 years over your Dad by your yoga lifestyle" So I know yoga works.
For me yoga is about laughter, joyfulness, gratitude and purpose and loving my practice even when I miss it through laziness.
About My Service
I try to convey the idea that Yoga/life are tools to learn about finding ourselves. Most of my classes these days are for drop-ins who may have done yoga before, or not. So I use props. Yoga mats, chairs, blocks, straps, walls what ever helps a person find out where they are today. e.g. The connection of Conscious standing in Tadasana, and the grounding-balance of the first (Muladhara) Cakra.
