A few years ago I turned 50, and like many of us do at these major thresholds, I began to do a serious check-in. Am I going in the direction I want to be going? Do I want to be feeling the same way and doing the same thing in a year from now? What about 5 or 10 or 20 years down the line? Sure, I could coast from here, but I was excited to shift gears and take a new route.

As a young woman, I had a bit of a tumultuous relationship with myself. Negative, sometimes crippling self-talk, battles with my body and image. Then as the years progressed, I started to trust myself a little more. Though the fights against myself mostly disappeared, there was still something missing.

Back in 2005 when I started practicing yoga, my life absolutely changed. I was teaching dance and Pilates at the time, but there was something that spoke to my soul when I practiced yoga and filled me with a new purpose. So, I started adding Yoga classes at the Pilates studio I had opened the same year. It was also around this time I heard of Ayurveda.

Since then, I’ve taken years and years of yoga teacher trainings. I’ve have also led teacher trainings to help dozens of others discover their own inner teacher so as to help them get in touch with what they value most in this lifetime.

Eventually, I took a year of Ayurveda training and started putting into place some really basic healthy habits rooted in the ancient wisdom of yoga and Ayurveda as taught to me by my teachers, Cate Sillman and Katie Silcox. These habits, after practicing for months and now years, have brought me more vibrancy and ease than I ever would have thought possible in my 50’s. So, now I’m delighted to share this with others.

And so, Embodied Vitality was born.

Now as a certified Yoga Health Coach, I am thrilled to bring these teachings to anyone who is willing to learn, who wants more in this lifetime, and who is ready to commit to themselves. I’ve seen people redesign the life that they want, turn their lives around, create lasting relationships, and literally become versions of themselves they only dreamed of.

I want nothing more than to collaborate with women who want to become part of a dynamic group and who wish to feel more connected to life, honor their true nature, and reclaim their health.

Every day I am so grateful and find more joy in life since discovering Yoga, and Ayurveda and sharing it with others.

Of course, when I’m not teaching yoga or coaching women in Ayurveda & wellness, you might find me leading a yoga retreat somewhere across the globe!  I lead and explore with men and women who want to take their yoga off the mat and into the world! 

Come retreat with me!
