Aloha!
I grew up in Page Arizona, on Lake Powell, where I used my high energy to run in the desert, swim in the beautiful lake, and to skateboard my way through the streets of my childhood. I was a natural athlete, and my passion for fitness developed into a passion for health, longevity, and mental balance as I aged.
​
After graduating with a BS from NAU in Flagstaff Arizona in 2004,​ I earned my personal training certification from NASM in 2006. I wanted to use my passion for health to help others.
​
In Hawaii, I found the Konalani Ashram and was certified to teach Hatha Yoga in 2009. That is when I realized that my lifelong passion, was really a purpose. My purpose was to share my love and knowledge of yoga and physical fitness with others. In the same year, I started Hawaii Beach Yoga.
​
But my real bonfire of passion and purpose came later.
In 2019, my mom was hit by a truck while walking in a crosswalk. The truck broke her hip and her skull, and she was left without the ability to walk, or to make new memories. She survived another 2 1/2 years, and in that time as her caregiver, I learned so much more about aging, about memory, bone health, and longevity. And, when she passed away, I learned about grief, and about the trauma that can linger in our tissues, and can deeply affect our daily lives. ​
In the past few years, I have learned more than I ever thought I could know about how we age, about our brain and memory health, our bones, our mental health, gut health, our fascia, and more. Specifically, I have learned about and practiced: trauma-release fascial maneuvers, EFT tapping, Recode memory-decline reversal protocols, bone-density exercises, head and heart coherence, qigong, and even more yoga moves, pranayama techniques, and expansive meditations.
​
So, now we call my classes "Alchemical Yoga" because they take elements from many sources, and tie together to create something new and very different. For you.
In one of my classes, you'll experience a blending of many of these modalities. The class will be designed to move you physically, mentally, and even emotionally. We work to teach our bodies how to heal themselves. Because we know that we are the best teachers we could ever have, for ourselves. Our bodies are self-healing machines, and if you can change, you can heal.
​
When I am not teaching Alchemical Yoga, I own and run a Deli here on the Big Island. You can join me for a unique beach yoga class any Thursday at Honls Beach from 8:00 - 9:30am.
