" When your body surrenders to movement, your soul remembers its dance. " - Gabrielle Roth
In 2007 I started co-facilitating 200 Hour and Continuing Education Yoga Teacher Training Programs in Toronto, and this brought me to share this gift throughout China, India and Thailand. My training in both yoga and psychodynamic psychotherapy allow me to work with the whole self creating a safe space for students to go through the process of transformation. I have ran 200 training's as the Lead Teacher, and it's my deepest passion to mentor people on this journey of yoga and healing arts.
I offer 10 hour, 30 hour, 50 hour, and 100 hour continuing education programs, and mentor new teachers, as well as guest teacher in trainings around the world.
