What brought you to yoga?
I competed in Judo tournaments throughout my life and in 2004, I returned from the World Masters Championship in Vienna with several injuries.

What do you love about teaching?
I love helping students connect to their energy- their ki- as a way to transform their lives.

My first class ever was with Paige Elenson, founder of the Africa Yoga Project. Her spirit stirred soemthing in mine and the practice eventually changed my life.
What motivates you to practice today?
The sense of mind, body, and spirit I feel after every class I take.

Judo, martial arts, vedic thair yoga body work, and Spanish wines.

A master sommelier.
