A little about me

After more than a decade of traveling, studying, and working in yoga communities across India and Asia, I returned home to Anaconda, Montana in 2023 to bring her experience back to the the US. My work now sits at the intersection of somatic practice, psychology, and classical yoga, grounded in the belief that healing happens through lived, embodied experience, not performance.

I got a Bachelor of Science in Psychology and a Master’s in Marriage and Family Therapy, which perfectly translates into my supportive role in my community now. I am a former adjunct professor of psychology and spent years teaching human development, sexuality, and mental health. This academic background deeply informs my somatic yoga work, allowing me to guide practices that support nervous system regulation, emotional processing, and a felt sense of safety in the body.

Alongside my academic training, I completed her 200-hour training in Classical Hatha Tantra in India and have devoted over fifteen years to personal practice and study. My somatic approach weaves slow, intentional movement, breath awareness, interoception, and rest, inviting students to listen to their bodies rather than override them. Sessions are designed to help unwind habitual holding patterns, restore trust in sensation, and reconnect women to their intuitive, embodied intelligence.

Most recently, I’ve completed a Functional Yoga training to help support my community in real life movements. We add therapeutic movements to traditional yoga poses to improve balance, strength, and mobility. It has quickly become the most popular yoga style among my students!

My teaching is rooted in presence, precision, and care. I am less interested in perfect poses and more devoted to helping people soften long-held patterns, develop self-attunement, and access their innate capacity for healing. When I say that you matter, I mean it. My life’s work is an offering to that truth.
