About Me
My Story
I started yoga in my mid-50s, at a time when my health was falling apart. I was taking several prescription medications, but I still didn’t feel like myself. I knew I wanted to make a change.
That’s when I found yoga.
I began studying, practicing, and learning more deeply about how yoga can support the body, mind, and overall well-being. I worked hard and eventually became a Yoga Instructor (E-RYT200, RYT-500) and Certified Yoga Therapist (C-IAYT).
Today, I’m grateful to say that I no longer take prescription medications, and I feel better than I did when I started this journey.
Now, I want to share what I’ve learned with seniors and others who want to age with greater strength, balance, confidence, and happiness.
It’s never too late to make a change.
My hope is to help you discover that you can feel better, move better, and enjoy the journey of aging.
