Biography + Teaching Philosophy

I have been practicing yoga since 2003, when I first sought out a vinyasa class as a curious college student. Over the years, yoga has become an increasingly important part of my life, helping me to find balance during times of change and stress. It has provided a physical and mental touchstone through multiple cross-country and international moves, pregnancy and childbirth, and a PhD program. I am a perpetual student, and my fascination with yoga practice, philosophy, and cultural history finally led me to complete a 300-hour teacher training in 2013. My core style is an athletic vinyasa flow, but I also draw inspiration from traditional Hatha as well as Ashtanga, Anusara, and restorative modalities.

I returned to teaching in 2019 after a hiatus following the birth of my two children, and I’m thrilled to share my practice with the community in Corning, NY!
