Professional Background  
I am so grateful to have found this life enhancing practice of Anusara Yoga and the loving community that is attracted to this path. I have been challenged, invited to grow and encouraged to find my own unique voice. No matter where I go I find Anusara family members near by opening their hearts to me and my students.

I thank John Friend the creator of Anusara Yoga for starting this movement in the yoga community.
Anusara Yoga encourages all teachers to raise the bar by studying philosophy, anatomy, therapeutics, yoga history. Many styles of yoga now include “heart themes’ to their classes and study the Universal Principles of Alignment that JF originated.

The transformation that I have personally experienced over the past 14 years is so dramatic. I used to be fearful and envious of others who seem so much happier and successful than me. Now I celebrate everyone's success and delight in the dance of Shakti that brought me here. Om Namah Shivaya!!

A: It was a beautiful day in Spring. They were working on the yoga studio at the Printing House Gym. We decided to go up to the roof deck to do yoga. We were saluting the sun with this huge blower blasting near by. Facing the Hudson River. Sudenly a strong wind came up. Yoga mats and props went flying. We had to anchor our mats with shoes and lounge chairs. WE donned our shades and our baseball caps and continued our practice. (Of course Channel 1 was there filming the fiasco!)
