Ever since discovering yoga in the early 90s, I knew it would be my passion. I have been teaching yoga for over 20 years now and I love helping people learn to connect their minds and bodies through their breath. I hope to share my expertise with as many people as I can and I'm honored to be a part of the Verywell team.
