It has been my great honor to serve as a coach for the past cycle of Power Yoga Teacher Training at CorePower Yoga.
I have coached for this program in the past, but in this cycle fulfilling my role as a coach, I found affirmation that I am meant to be teaching yoga and training others to teach & share their yoga as well. I am very excited to do more with this incredible program in the future!
I am so grateful to the incredible team of leads/coaches I got to be part of. Matt, Red Jen, & Stacey - you are all inspiring beings from whom I have learned and with whom I have deeply enjoyed facilitating this program alongside. Thank you for being your amazing selves.
Finally, I am so unfathomably, ridiculously proud of these Teacher Training Graduates! I beam from ear to ear as I look at your smiling faces and am truly ecstatic to see where you all go with sharing yoga with the world. While you have said thank you to me for what I taught you, I am also thankful to you for all you have taught me and the energy you have given to me.
Congratulations teacher trainers! You did it! Now go forth & yoga!

I am excited to announce that my 2nd official article with Elephant Journal has been published! Inspired by a real life conversation & reflection (with the fabulous @laurensanfordd ), I discuss what it is to teach yoga and what to always remember in the seat of the teacher - teaching yoga is simply sharing your practice with others. Please enjoy “What to Remember When You Start to Doubt Yourself as a Yoga Instructor”. If you can please read & if it resonates- share. The more views the more I will be asked to continue writing for Elephant Journal!

Balance is really the key to all life. We see this in nature. In nature, there is a balance between growth & decay, resistance & erosion, movement & stillness. However, our species in particular seems to really struggle with finding balance; we have a propensity for extremes and opposites. But the best human life is lived when balance is achieved. We must seek to find the balance between work & play, give & take, indulgence & abstinence, movement & rest.
This week in my classes & my own practice, I have been working to bring balance into the body in order to help manifest balance, equanimity, & equality in overall life.
Maybe once we are balanced beings, we can help to bring balance to the world as well: balance between production & honoring the earth, western innovation & eastern spiritual focus, & ultimately equality for all.
If you haven’t caught me at my other classes this week, catch me twice more Saturday at CorePower Yoga HB:
9:30am C2
11:00am C2
