At my very first Yoga class, I knew I had tapped into an authenticiy deep inside myself that I didn’t have a way to access previously. Since that evening in Montreal in the late 60’s, the art and science of Yoga has been a strong guiding influence in my life’s journey. Many years later, I went to Kripalu Centre in Massachusetts to become a certified Kripalu Yoga teacher.

I am particularly interested in the therapeutic & restorative potential of Yoga as a valuable healing modality and enjoy working with seniors and private clients developing specific programs for their needs – as well as regular yoga classes.

My teaching & learning continues to be informed and enriched by courses, workshops and retreats. I am currently taking an intensive two year yoga therapy training with Leila Stuart. Other recent trainings are Healing Touch, Indian head massage, and the practice of Yoga Nidra, a deep relaxation, developing the ability to utilize the deeper mind.

Sharing the Joy of Gentle Yoga is such a priviledge. I aspire to provide a peaceful space where we may feel the home that is deep within, - using our body and breath as the doorway.
