Teaching Crew

My teaching style... 
Fun, dynamic, strong, and mindful - my practice aims to take you away from the city's hustle-bustle and onto a journey of transformation. 

About me... Born and raised in New York City, I have a passion for all things yoga and wellness related. From hiking and travelling to scuba diving and snowboarding, I'm always ready for the next adventure. Last but not least, I truly love empowering others and helping them realize their potential. 

Why I Teach Yoga... 
I am grateful for yoga and how it transformed my life, empowered me, and enabled me to now do the same for others. I love teaching yoga because it made a big impact on my life, physically and mentally. By sharing this practice with the world, I hope more people can experience the beautiful, transformative impact of yoga. 

Life pre-yoga... 
Prior to my life as a teacher, I was running teams that help innovate and transform in the fin-tech/startup space. I left my career in finance & tech to pursue my passion. Yoga inspired me to get out of my ‘head’ and leave my career to create more balance and to do what I love to do - empowering people to accomplish anything they wish and face challenges that come their way. 

When I was little, I wanted to be…
A school teacher! I used to always play teacher with my neighbor and classmates. Eventually, I did become a summer counselor and part-time tutor teaching elementary school kids. I loved it when they actually ‘got’ what I was teaching them - the feeling of making an impact was very rewarding. 
I guess part of my dream is already realized via my role as a yoga teacher! If life allows, I would like to retire as a university professor in behavioral science :)
