She is owner of Karma Yoga Bloomfield Hills, MI www.karma-yoga.net , E-RYT yoga teacher, passionate spiritual leader, meditation teacher, ayurvedic practioner and head Goddess to 3 sons ages 25, 21 and 15. In her spare time she can be found leading local and international yoga retreats (she'll be video blogging from India Feb 2011), inspiring & mentoring budding yoga teachers, studio owners and being of service to those struggling with co-dependency and who are living or have lived with the effects of addiction.
Her roots began with a BM from University of Michigan. She was drawn to integrate her love of music into her passion for exercise as an aerobics instructor for many years. Her soul then called her for a deeper experience to be found in Ashtanga yoga. Having studied over the years with leading teachers such as Pattahbi Jois, Tim Miller, David Swenson, Beryl Bender Birch, Sharon Gannon & David Life, John Friend and Shiva Rea she grew into her own style of teaching a more devotional "Bhakti" based practice to inspirational bhakti based music.
Her path/practice and PASSION is one of devotion to God, Source, love, beauty, harmony and the evolutionary impulse governing and underlying all things. Through her asana teaching she inspires her students (vibrational beings) to do their soul work so as to come into harmony with Source that which they are. She inspires her to students to remove their old stress, conditioning, complaints, beliefs, habits, addictions, limiting perspectives, and stubborn opinions to become the ripe condition for vibrating at a higher frequency and step into the people they are capable of being! Her goal is to get this message out globally through writing and teaching to allow others their own healing, loving and creating to begin! Om Namaha Shivaya!
