• Biography

  As a yoga teacher and Healing Touch Practitioner, I love when people find tools to feel and live better. The community and energy at Yoga Sanctuary are saturated with kindness and I love being part of it! I moved to MInneapolis after earning my MFA in Choreography from University of Iowa, and began teaching dance at St. Cloud State University.  When stress and injuries started to hold me back, I would drop in to Ben Vincent’s yoga class, which put enough of a band-aid on things that I could keep going.  After my daughter was born in 2010, I was eager to replace work-stress with Mom-stress, but found that I needed yoga and Healing Touch study to unwind the ropes of new responsibility and identity.   I completed the 235 hr yoga teacher training at Devanadi and started training in Healing Touch there, mostly because I wanted better tools to live more fully--with less pain and stress. I studied Healing Touch with Barb Schommer, Carol Schoenekker and Dana Spates, who became one of my mentors.

  In May 2017, I completed a 9 month program of intensive Yoga Studies with Ben Vincent, and became a Certified Healing Touch Practitioner in 2018.  Partnering with Shelley Pagitt at Yoga Sanctuary to create the Holistic Yoga Teacher Training and Personal Transformation program has been an amazingly fulfilling experience. I am currently undertaking another in-depth study or yoga at Devanadi to become a 500hr RYT.
