As a yoga teacher, massage therapist, and doula- providing a safe environment where people feel heard and supported is the most important thing to me.

 

Healing happens when people can let their guard down. Trust and transparency does wonders for a therapeutic relationship. 

​

I have a thirst for knowledge and I am in a constant process of learning and unlearning in both the massage and yoga world. I have a bit of an obsession with busting yoga myths and teaching from the heart of yoga- doing my best to honor its tradition and sacred wisdom beyond modern postural yoga. In massage I have learned many left of center truths that move away from the unhelpful and sometimes harmful wellness culture tropes about what massage does and that your somehow broken.

 

I have received training in Hatha yoga, Vinyasa yoga, Restorative yoga, Chair yoga, Pranayama, Pre-natal/Post-natal and Yin yoga. My teachers include Noah Maze, Rocky Heron, Tiffany Cruickshank, Paul Grilley, Prasad Rangnekar, and others.

​

My massage education has led me to deeper study in pain science, Poly-vagul theory, Somatics, Antiracism, Intersectionality, Feminism, Ayurveda, Trigger-point therapy, Myo-fascial Release, Accupressure, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Reiki, Pre-natal and Post-natal massage. My style as a massage therapist is heavily influenced by what I have discovered along the way, but I do not adhere to any strict modality or techniques.
