I teach and counsel yoga students and Ayurvedic clients with lightheartedness and compassion, grounded in decades of practical - and mystical - life experience, filled with a lifelong love and respect for both Nature Herself and these profoundly transformative knowledge systems that arose long ago in India: Yoga & Ayurveda.

I seek to inform, uplift and encourage those who would like help in forging a new or deeper connection to Life, using practices of reconnection with the Natural world, along with these incredibly sensible, nourishing life skills from India, which have long been proven to support and empower dedicated individuals as fully integrated members of humanity.

I have been wild at heart all my life. As I child, I experienced Nature almost every day, in the woods right outside my back door in Western Massachusetts. I was (and still am) a voracious, curious reader. Which is how, as a teen, I came across the Vedic knowledge systems of India. I began practicing asana after the birth of my first child in my late 20s; I started teaching in my late 30s. For close to three decades, I've spent tens of thousands of hours studying these knowledge systems and experiencing Nature in ways that have shaped my life and inform my stewardship of the land. By working directly with people of all ages and abilities who want to learn Yoga, Ayurveda - and in recent years, with those who want to experience a connection with Nature, too - I seek to help others experience LIFE and our world in a more meaningful and reciprocal, regenerative way.
