After living abroad in Venezuela for ten years teaching scuba diving, I returned to Ottawa and was introduced to Bikram yoga. Immediately I felt I was in the right place, I was home. The sequencing and the postures spoke to me profoundly. Within a short time practicing, I knew I had to share this incredible yoga with others and allow others to help themselves as it has helped me.

Yoga has grounded me, strengthened my spirit, and opened my heart. It has allowed me to move quite fearlessly and freely in my inner and outer world. So off I went in the winter of 2002 and certified with Bikram in Los Angeles. This proved to be one of the most amazing experiences of my life. Recently, I completed a month long Kripalu Hatha teacher training, and once again found it to be an incredible life changing experience allowing me to share even more with others.

For me, yoga is a lifestyle and teaching is something I will do lifelong.
