I have called Little Rock home since 2009 and am very grateful for all of the doors God has opened up for me here. My yoga journey started with lower back and hip troubles after having my son in 2014. I was ordered by my doctor to start practicing yoga regularly, and I am so glad I listened! Since I couldn’t maintain a practice at home, I started practicing regularly at a local gym and got hooked! 

My teaching career started at Heifer International in November of 2016, when Erin Snow (RYT 200), encouraged me to carry on the class she started. I quickly realized how much love I had for teaching and enrolled at Sage Yoga School under Sherri Youngblood (E-RYT 500). Teacher training took me on a spiritual journey I never expected and I feel called to share the benefits of yoga with all. When teaching you will find that I try to integrate the word of Christ, either through song or readings. Slowing down used to be very difficult for me, but I have realized just how important slowing down is for our mental health. Join me for a spiritually driven journey in yoga and reconnect with your inner divine.
