I started yoga at 18 - not chasing enlightenment, just trying to fix stubborn back pain no doctor could figure out.
But it became more than that. It didn’t just stretch my spine; it gave me space to breathe, to notice my thoughts, and to actually feel in my body. Back then, I didn’t even have the language to say “I have anxiety.” Yoga helped me realize that. And then helped me work through it.
That’s the thread in my teaching now: practical, compassionate movement that helps you feel a little more steady in your body and life.
