About Me

Certified Kripalu yoga teacher and therapist specializing in whole body alignment to heal pain and posture, restore function and range of motion.

Assessing and Adapting to the individual

I have been a Kripalu (Meditation in Motion) yoga teacher since 1995. Misdiagnosed Lyme disease and five whiplash injuries sent me on a rich journey of healing, and I've studied and shared structural yoga therapy and the Egoscue method in individual and group settings since 2002.  


I'm also a x-c ski instructor, sea kayak guide & instructor, hiker & climber, swimmer & cyclist. I've found that warming up with the joint freeing series improves performance, reduces pain and soreness and limits injury. Activity targeted restoratives rebalance the body more quickly and effectively than a non-targeted asana practice.


Most effective is individual posture assessment and a personal "menu" of targeted exercises based on your alignment, activities and goals.

Testimonials

This Egoscue stuff really works! I had knee pain after certain activities. After two sessions and practicing the daily menu, the symptoms subsided. I really appreciate your healing talents.

6/6: I have had three steroid injections this past year....and don't want to keep needing them but can't seem to...heal enough to work on strength. 6/15 Thank you for seeing me. I'm feeling pretty darn good. I'll do the alignment positions and let you know if I have questions. 6/22: I am loving this program! I hiked 4 mi. yesterday and was entirely pain free....that is huge progress for me! I don't have hip pain sitting in the car. and it was super easy to do the routine in the van. 6/29 I'm doing e-cises daily and feeling great...and am thankful I have a tool to "reset".
