In discovering Cloud Nine Yoga, my career in body work blossomed. Completely transforming my life in 2004, I fell in love with falling in love and having heaven on earth. As a child, I had reactions to environmental toxins providing me with the opportunity during this life to study simple and natural ways ~ with the guidance of generations ~ in the healing hands of Reiki.

I began my studies of movement and alignment in 1985 at a local dance studio, eventually graduating from the Orange County High School of the Arts. After birthing my three children, I attended Cal State Fullerton where I resumed my education in voice and movement. After graduation, I spent time working as a coordinator for an international fitness group. I am certified nationally through AFAA in group exercise, including cardio kick boxing, pilates and personal training.

At Svastha Health Ayurveda and Yoga Studio, I do consulting with Dr. Mohan to guide patients through yoga therapy programs.

Currently I am becoming certified through DONA to support my current doula practice (labor support) and will be attending Nizhoni School of Midwifery until 2013 to study Shamanistic Science and Intuition.

My yoga classes are personal transformational sessions in a group setting. I share different sides of the practice of yoga ~ utilizing the divine masculine/feminine, groovy music, inspiring words, laughter and light meditation. I call it the “fun yoga.”

Now a director of Yoga Teacher Trainings in Long Beach with Cloud Nine Yoga, I help provide a space for awakening further hearts and minds in the many facets of this glorious practice. Serving with a sense of humor, compassion and healing hands — I am blessed to witness.
