I specialize in therapeutic, gentle, restorative yoga for older adults, cancer and heart disease patients but also teach classes for the general public and work with individuals. I have a level I and II certification from the Egoscue University, specializing in relieving pain by restoring proper posture. I incorporate postural alignment concepts, stress management, somatics and meditation in my yoga classes and work with individuals.
