The Connective’s commitment to making mindful movement more accessible to all students, their support of diversity, and endeavors to help teachers earn a sustainable wage are why I joined this community.

In my classes, I focus on creating a space where students can explore conscious and creative movement in a supportive environment. We build strength, mobility, and endurance while enhancing the parasympathetic nervous system response through yogic techniques, soft-tissue massage, and meditation. I endeavor to be attentive to each student and honor their reason for practicing.

Sometimes Penny and Peach, my cats, join our practice for a stretch and roll. They are the most relaxed creatures I know.
