Yoga found me at a time in my life where I was in desperate need of change. From childhood to becoming a young adulthood, I struggled with depression, weight gain, and suicidal thoughts. Being a mother that my daughters could look up to, became my biggest priority. I had to believe in myself and pull myself out of the darkness.
In 2011, I went to a yoga class and fell in love with the relationship yoga creates between movement and the breath. I began doing yoga every day, and combining with weightlifting, I lost 80 pounds. I also gained peace of mind, self-healing, and self love.
In August 2015, I received my 200hr teacher training through Lex Gillan, whose lineage includes the teachings of Ram Dass. I have continued to study and since received other format training, including ButiYoga (first level and advanced), Zen Meditation, Reiki (level 1 & 2), and more.
