More about me!
My path with yoga has been one of deep study, devotion, and personal transformation. Over the past 9 years, I’ve been drawn to the practices that help us slow down, listen inward, and remember the wisdom already living within us. My teaching is rooted in yoga, Ayurveda, Yoga Nidra, Sanskrit, Vedic studies, subtle body teachings, and therapeutic movement, but what matters most to me is creating spaces where people feel safe, supported, and truly seen. Whether I’m guiding a class, retreat, workshop, or teacher training, my intention is always to offer something nourishing, honest, and meaningful. I love weaving together intentional movement, rest, ritual, self-inquiry, and nervous system support so students can experience yoga not just as something they do, but as something that gently shapes the way they live, relate, and return home to themselves.
ŚRY is profoundly blissful – it FEELS amazing and is supremely healing. This yoga is free from any risk of injury, overstretching, or over exertion. This is a yoga of true opening. It may be what you have been looking for all along. The more you do the better you feel.
It may look like “restorative yoga,” but it goes far beyond. Using props and precise angles, this practice gently and dynamically decompresses your spine from its root to its crown. Your spine is the body’s central axis, a channel of consciousness, and a container of karma, so the effects are deep and multidimensional: physical healing, life transformation, and inner awakening. There are no mats, no workouts, and no sun salutations, just advanced yet accessible spinal release, ideal for those recovering from injury or strain caused by other forms of yoga.
