what kind of yoga I do

Heated, healing yoga! I am a fun, friendly and encouraging teacher, with a back-to-basics approach. My focus is to make yoga accessible to anyone and everyone by teaching you what the poses are trying to accomplish and explaining things in simple terms. Please see the schedule for all classes taught by me.

I have been practicing Hatha yoga for the
last several years under the tutelage of a
master - Brian Monnier, of San Francisco’s
California Yoga Company (formerly Yogic
Motion). Brian has been teaching yoga for
many years in San Francisco, and has been
trained by Tony Sanchez, president of the
Tony Sanchez Academia de Yoga (formerly
United States Yoga Association), following
a system believed to have originated from
Yogi Matsyendranatha from the Natha of

physical culturists - Hatha Yogis - established
sometime between the 5th and 10th century
A.D. The advanced sequence that we follow
contains 84 asanas (poses).

“Heated, healing yoga” as I call it, or “Hot Yoga” is a movement of Hatha Yoga that is practiced in a heated room. Most forms of Hot Yoga heat the room from anywhere from 80-105 degrees. Any style of yoga can be heated and deemed "Hot Yoga". Hot Yoga styles and studios which stem from the Bishnu Ghosh lineage are predominantly considered "Hot Yoga".

Yoga is great for the strengthening of muscles, particularly your core stomach muscles. Yoga is also fantastic for strength and confidence building. Asanas can be modified for all levels, including those blessed with pregnancy, and can be great exercise for those suffering from back pains as well as those working with injuries. I am also a personal trainer, certified by National Academy of Sports Medicine (NASM), and this background heavily influences my yoga practice and instruction.

“Yoga is known as the disconnection (viyoga)
of the connection (samyoga) with suffering”
- Bhagavad Gita
