Come back
to your
body.

In the studio, in your space, or wherever feels right. Presence is a practice. So is rest.

A safe place
to slow down
— and just be.

This isn't a studio. There's no mirror, no performance, no one watching your form. It's a practice designed around what your body needs and wants in the moment.

I offer private and small-group sessions in yoga, breathwork, somatic movement, mobility work, meditation, and space holding. Sessions happen in my home studio or deck (weather permitting), at your home, in the park, or wherever you feel most at ease.

Let the practice take shape around you. People have been using breath, water, movement, and stillness to come back to themselves for, well — as long as there have been people. My role is to hold what's needed — presence, guidance, or support.

Yoga Teacher · Space Holder

I'm based on the BC coast, and most mornings you'll find me near the water with my dog. I came to this practice to process and heal, and it keeps me.

I am fortunate to have met a few beautiful souls along the way who helped me find my way back to my body. With love and patience they held space, and shared their practice. I humbly hope to do the same.

I completed my 200-hour teacher training at Nexus Institute for Yoga & Wellness in Nosara, Costa Rica, under the warm guidance of co-founders Horace and Janel (Schullo) Usry.

Specialty Soft, slow, attentive — at your pace, in your way.
Located Belcarra, BC — a small village inside Belcarra Regional Park, on a quiet ocean fjord. Sessions at my home studio, your space, on the trails, or via Zoom anywhere.
