*I took my first yoga class about four years ago as I was attempting to heal from a running injury. In fact, I saw yoga as little more than a way to maintain fitness until I could run again. But after I was cleared to run again, I found myself desiring to be back on my mat. The practice grew from being about exercising to a maintaining deeper awareness of meditation and the body. While the benefits of yoga are readily apparent, the mental transformation it has on your life tends to sneak up on you!
Yoga asks us to challenge ourselves daily while simultaneously cultivating a deep compassion. For me, yoga is a disciplined physical practice that flows out of a rich meditation that moves us with intention and grace.
In hopes of sharing this great joy found in yoga, I took my practice to the next level by becoming RYT Certified. Logging over 200 hours of teaching, I studied under the guidance of Black Swan Yoga and am currently working towards my 500 Hour certification.
As a marathon runner with multiple Boston Qualifying times, my passion for the sport drives me to improve each day. Yoga has been a wonderful physical compliment while also providing a new awareness of my inner-self not known before. My practice focuses on strengthening and stretching the muscles most commonly used for all types of runners, helping prevent injury to stay on the move for all of life’s great adventures.
