I specialize in alignment and corrective techniques that allow students to advance their individual skill sets while improving their own practices. Specifically, using blocks, props, and repetition to guide and strengthen the body, attaining greater mobility and preparing the student to find stillness in the postures. I also instruct students on the use of proper breathing techniques to achieve better access to illusive poses, providing a useful technique for stress relief and inner compassion when they are away from the mat.
It is my goal as a yoga instructor to make the challenging study of this ancient art something that is understandable, memorable, and available to the modern student arriving with nothing more than the courage to unroll their mat, and begin practice.
I have been studying Ashtanga and Iyengar Yoga for 14 years, and Hatha Yoga for 20 and have had the opportunity to teach for over 13 years. Most recently, I have been teaching at SOUTHCOM, and before that I taught at United Studios of Self Defense in Las Vegas. Instruction via weekly group classes was provided to Black Belt Martial Artists and their students to accomplish greater range and flexibility, and also to develop internal awareness techniques that aid in retaining equilibrium while sparring and during tournaments. Private instruction was provided when needed. In addition, personalized programs were developed for teaching weekly private and small group classes for individuals in their homes.
