I am an E-RYT 500 Yoga and Mindfulness Meditation teacher. I have been practicing yoga and meditation for 20 years. Originally from New York City, I worked in the corporate world post university as a Market Research Director. In 2001, I was diagnosed with Psoriatic Arthritis after years of enduring stress and anxiety. This diagnosis proved to be a wakeup call, a reminder that happiness and joy is how life should be lived. Yoga saved my life and now yoga IS my life. My yoga allows me to nurture my relationship with myself - to be observant, mindful, and compassionate. Yoga is not what I do, it is how I do what I do. I have two boys who I am teaching to meditate! And I am the Program Director of CROS Ministries’ Caring Kitchen. The Caring Kitchen is a hot meal program that serves and delivers meals to the hungry and homebound in Delray Beach, FL. Besides yoga and meditation, I enjoy running, living, loving, laughing, dancing, singing, and playing my ukelele.
