Teacher

Having discovered the uncanny combination of vitality and serenity that comes with hatha yoga practice, I found I wanted to practice daily as much as possible. With it, we learn how to cultivate our own authentic kinesthetic intelligence, to study our self, body, heart, mind and soul. It's always interesting and helps us to turn to others with the same compassionate curiosity.

Why I Practice

  • 200 hr. Yoga Alliance certified

  • 20+ years of regular practice, 10+ years of teaching experience

  • Many hours of study with several senior Iyengar teachers

  • Rabbi, Cantor and social worker

  • Sole female in a family of four men (five if you count the dog!)

Sharing what I know of this tradition with others is a way to pass on the gift and a way to deepen my own understanding.
