Founder’s Story

Instructor/ 200-hr certified

For as long as I can remember, I have been on a journey of self-mastery. I like to feel strong, capable, and connected to my body. As adulthood set in, taking care of myself became less of a choice. At 25, newly married and having my first kid, I stumbled across yoga on the internet. I was captivated by the pull. Everything shifted. The practice became a mirror, teaching me how to sit with hard things, stay present, and understand that the deep connection between the physical experience and mental experience is not separate. 

My teaching path began with one-on-one training with Baptiste instructor Christian Trueb, who taught me how to harness challenged physical states by surrendering to the ego with grace. I continued training with Barbra at West Hartford Yoga, where I gained a deeper meaning and a dedication to discipline. Between the two of them, I learned that strength and softening aren't opposites; they're the same thing showing up differently. My practice is built on purpose and love for life. And now, my vision of Heartspace is here to share.
