What do you love about our new space?
It's so beautiful and welcoming. I love the view of nature from our studio – it fills my heart every time I teach ❤️
You might look familiar to some of our community members...
Yes! You might recognize me from the art workshops I led at ITW late last year. As a certified health & wellness coach, mindfulness practitioner, chair yoga instructor, and art teacher, I love bringing together all aspects of creative and mindful living.
Tell us a bit about your background:
I grew up in DeForest, Wisconsin, and have called the Fond du Lac area home since 2000. For many years, I taught high school art in Beaver Dam, and it was in the classroom that I discovered how powerful it can be to incorporate self-awareness and mindful practices into daily life. This led me to earn my Mindfulness Certification in December 2017.
Over the years, yoga has become an incredibly beneficial part of my mind, body, and soul's wellbeing. My passion for yoga recently inspired me to dive deeper into all that this beautiful practice has to offer, and I received my certification for teaching chair yoga in November 2023.
What's your approach as an instructor?
My intent as both a coach and instructor is to create a safe, nurturing practice that embraces the beauty around and within us while building strength, balance, and confidence. I believe yoga should be accessible to everyone, regardless of mobility or experience level.
What do you love to do in your free time?
I love spending time with my family and friends, photography, painting, reading, and traveling.
Any final thoughts for our community?
I can't wait to see you in my Chair Strength classes! All levels welcome. Come as you are – let's build strength and find balance together. 🧘♀️✨
