Yoga changed my life because I was finally able to get to know myself and be real with who I am. Yoga taught me vulnerability, intimacy and playfulness. Through the development of my personal practice I was able to express suppressed emotions, finding relief and feeling lighter mentally and physically every time. Through teaching yoga I have found my voice and burned through the fear of speaking. Now, I teach to create an environment for others to be able to feel comfortable with themselves, to become more vulnerable, to grow and transform, to play, to find authenticity and discover their truth through the path of asana, pranayama, mantra and spontaneous movement.
