Teaching at YogaOne

I'm excited to announce that I'll be teaching Forrest-inspired vinyasa at Albina and Roger Rippy's YogaOne Studio in Midtown. My classes are on Mondays 11:45-12:45 (60 minutes) and Saturdays 11:45-1:15 (90 minutes). Both classes will be vigorous and sweaty (not "hot yoga") for all, regardless of student level. It is recommended that students for these Monday and Saturday classes have asana experience. Complete beginners who have never done yoga should attend the more basic classes at YogaOne before coming to my classes. If it's not possible for you to attend the more basic classes, then contact me to set up 15-20 minute intro lesson. I'll show you basic moves and modifications necessary for your abilities.

I'm happy to answer any questions you might have. My contact information is on my website. See you in class!

Long Overdue Update

It's been a month and a half since I've moved from Boston to Texas. I miss Boston so much and hope that all my friends and students are doing well up there. I'd love to hear from all of you to know what's happening in your lives and your yoga. So much great yoga in Boston! To my new friends and students down here in Houston - thank you for such a warm welcome!!! I'm having such fun getting to know all of you. Thank you for your dedication and diligence on the mat :)

Yoga in Houston is great. When I'm not teaching I try my best to take Ann Hyde's and Robert Boustany's classes. They are amazing teachers. I had two very awesome "yoga firsts" (as I like to call it) in their classes recently. A couple weeks ago, I interlocked my hands in Tittibhasana B (Standing Tortoise) for the first time in my life. And just this past weekend, with Ann's encouragement, I had the courage to do Shin Pillar full-on. (I usually flake out in Shin Pillar because it's so darn intense.) Yoga firsts exhilarate me and put me in a state of pure happiness. Yoga firsts remind me that anything is attainable both on and off the mat.

More good news is that I'm participating in the Forrest Yoga Mentorship Program with Ann Hyde, a Forrest Yoga Mentor Teacher. It is a year-long program that starts this November. I'm so excited to be learning more and going deeper as both a yoga student as well as yoga teacher!

I can't wait to see what new adventures and experiences await me! I'll be sure to keep updating this blog, so check back again!
