My Story

​

My exploration of the world of yoga began in the 80s in my search for a way to ease years of back pain. 

After trying a few classes here and there, I discovered Kripalu Yoga quite by accident after seeing my chiropractor for a neck spasm. He directed me to The Toronto Kripalu Yoga Center which was just down the hall. I knew from the first class that I had found exactly what I needed.

My back pain disappeared completely after 2 months of consistent practise. 

 

Four years later, in 1992 I received my first teaching certification from Kripalu Center for Yoga and Health in Lenox Massachusetts. 

 

Over the years I have taken many additional workshops at Kripalu as well as a 2 year Yoga Therapist training with Yoga Therapy Toronto. I’m also trained in Restorative Yoga through Judith Hanson Lasater and in 2018, travelled to India for a month long program to learn the protocols for leading Yoga Nidra meditations. 

 

In my classes I draw from all of these disciplines.
