Growing up Erin’s mother practiced meditation and her father incorporated yoga to balance his marathon running. Years later Erin reconnected with the regenerating and strengthening aspects of yoga though bilateral Achilles’ tendon ruptures. With three children under five, post operative and double casted with her toes pointed downward, Erin spent the summer in a wheel chair. Humbled by the many twists and turns life takes she believes in the power of resiliency and personal evolution. Erin subscribes to the simple phrase that “life is an adventure to be lived, not a problem to be solved.”
Erin completed teacher training with Beryl Bender Birch and Cyndi Lee and began teaching in 2000. She met Shiva in 2002 and became a devoted student and friend eventually receiving her 500 hour certification. Erin continues to study with Shiva who has inspired her to live courageously, honor the source and celebrate the rhythms of nature. You can find her in her new home of Charleston, South Carolina where she loves time with her family, tennis, cooking, gardening and being on the water as much as possible.
