I was introduced to kundalini yoga by a friend at a time when I was really feeling the desire for a more “productive” way to manage stress and the day to day demands of life. That first kundalini class has changed the course of this life in immeasurable ways that are still revealing themselves everyday. After many years of classes the decision to take the teacher training just seemed to come at a perfect time. Not perfect in the way of anything that made logical sense but in the way that I just instinctively knew this was the time.

After signing up and even through completion I didn’t really give much thought into actually teaching a kundalini yoga class. The teacher training was an investment in myself. Just like the perfect timing for the training, the perfect time to share what I have learned came before I even thought it was something to think about.

For me yoga is about balance. A tool to balance all the magic the universe has to offer with the demands of modern life. Yoga and our community offers us a sanctuary to be our most authentic selves and to share that gift with others. We are at our best during service and we make it better together.
