Welcome!
I've been a world traveler since 1986, a licensed spa therapist since 1991, and a certified yoga instructor since 1999. I started this blog to share my travels, skills, and interests.
"Teach to learn" ~ Baba Hari Dass
As an RYT500 with over 1000 hours of yoga teacher training, I offer Hatha Yoga instruction (asana, pranayama, and meditation) rooted in traditional Kriya yoga as taught by my initial mentor, Baba Hari Dass. I've studied extensively with several prominent instructors in the Iyengar, Ashtanga, and Hatha Yoga traditions. Insights from Advaita Vedanta, Buddhism, Shamanism, and somatic psychotherapy further influence my teaching style.
My yoga classes foster alignment and mindfulness, guiding participants to connect with the wisdom of their bodies. As I navigate the journey of aging myself, I'm particularly interested in supporting older adults to maintain lifelong vitality.

As a massage therapist, I create personalized experiences for each client by blending various modalities, including Swedish, Sports Massage, Acupressure, Shiatsu, Reiki, Craniosacral Therapy, Lymphatic, and Thai Massage.
As a licensed esthetician specializing in holistic skincare, I view plants as my trusted allies. I feel they possess an intelligence that genuinely seeks to support us. I exclusively use premium plant-based products that deliver visible results, enhance radiance, and support overall well-being.
As a wellness professional, I've had the privilege of working in prestigious spas and retreat centers globally, including aboard ships in the Mediterranean, Caribbean, and Pacific.
