What places make you feel most at peace and alive? For me, in the spray of a waterfall on a mountain is most definitely top 3 💚🙏💦🏔️

I’m beyond honored and excited to be teaching Yoga at the Shameless Retreat at gorgeous Forest Creek in Darrington, WA on August 1-3! Last year’s retreat was spectacular with Incredible music, beautiful social community connection, awesome weather in a gorgeous place with mountain range views and a river to play and swim in, projected movies, silly vibes and even an amazing breakfast made for participants 🤤

puts their heart, soul, hard work, excellence, joy and love into everything they do and it shows! My first introduction to the dance music community which I now call my extended chosen friend family, was 9 years ago in a yoga class with a live DJ on a rooftop at a Shameless party from that moment on, I knew I found my tribe and something rare and special in Seattle. Getting to know and over the years has been a true blessing and I am so excited to be a part of this special event this summer!

If you’d like to join me for this private, intimate festival, DM me for a ticket link and 10% discount code or to connect you to volunteer opportunities if funds are tight or you just want to help create this magic. Trust me, you won’t regret it 😉😘

“Sure I like Hollywood, I just like Minneapolis more.” - Prince

What a wonderful, nourishing week home that was! Swimming in and running around our beautiful lakes, quality time with friends & family, great food, a great hot yoga class and a tribal dance / Buti yoga Goddess class that was a blast and gave me some great ideas for my classes. Got caught up on some much needed rest and sleep thanks to the deeply grounding earth energy of MN especially during Cancer season and even got to sing karaoke with my favorite duet partner, my brother Abe and friends at the VFW Uptown, where the sweet bartender remembered me from 20 years ago! He thought it was rad that my friends & I are now opting for lime and soda water or ginger brew with cherries over boozy cocktails.

❤️ you forever Mpls! Til next time, stay DOPE ✌️😘

I’ve been learning a lot about the magick of the pentagram since stepping onto the Ritual Master Path this last September. It’s a powerful symbol revered in many spiritual and mystical traditions that represents harmony, protection, and spiritual balance.

Its five points represent the elements Earth, Air, Fire, Water, and Spirit and its shape that of the human body reflecting the interconnectedness of nature and humanity. Upright, the top point represents both the head and element of Spirit; signifying the triumph of Spirit over matter and encouraging inner wisdom, peace, and alignment with natural and cosmic forces. Used as both a protective emblem and a reminder of the sacred unity between the physical and the spiritual realms in Wiccan traditions. It also represents mathematical principle of the golden ratio which can be found within its lines along with many other naturally occurring phenomena with sacred geometric patterns like roses, succulents, and sea shells.

I love to geek out on mystical, mythical, symbolic concepts like this and they are often become the inspiration for my body art. So when shared that she needed tattoo clientele right now, we got to brainstorming and she drew up this beautiful design which is now permanent art that is a part of me. I love it so much!

2025 was a lovely, silly, heart connected time with lovely souls in the woods. The rain made it feel intimate and cozy & helped us process a little of the collective grief in a gentle way. Which also felt appropriate at the beginning of Cancer season and a week of the Sun moving into Cancer & a new moon in Cancer. We need to find many ways to nourish our bodies, minds, souls & hearts right now. These spaces and experiences are so important during these intense times ✨🌚♋️🙏🧚🎶🎨🕺💚✨

Even
After
All this time
The sun never says to the Earth,
“You owe me.”
Look
What happens
With a love like that,
It likes the whole sky.

Happy Summer Solstice everyone!

Every and Spring & Summer I am caught off guard by and in a state of surprised awe at all the beautiful nature that surrounds me. I wonder if I had amnesia and forgot how magnificent it was last year as I emerge from the the cocoon of winter into the explosion of color and sunlight. I think maybe this happens so that we can experience the glory of it all again as if it’s the first time? I’ve heard a similar thing may happen with childbirth ;-)

This season, may I shed everything and everyone gracefully and easily that does not serve my highest good going forward. May I fully embrace each day and each beam of sunshine with pure gratitude, joy, & wonder. May I treat each step my feet take on the earth like a sacred dance or prayer. May I treat each day like the gift that it is. May I invite new beginnings of romance, joy, abundance, friendship, community, growth, adventure. And at the end of each day, may I rest deeply and regain the strength & energy to do it all again with the same level of enthusiasm as the day before. Aho, Amen 🙏

I’ve been meditating on the situation we find ourselves in as a country. I’m proud to be an American citizen not because of anything our government has ever done. Our country has some very dark karma and history as many nations do. I am proud of our people. The marginalized and oppressed and their alleys, who, despite all odds, have held hope, and a vision for a better world, and have succeeded in creating environmental protections, civil rights, LGBTQ, rights, women’s rights, disability rights, refugee and immigrant rights etc:

These folks are the only reason we have clean air, water, human rights, access to education, freedom to choose our professions within reason, freedom to choose whether, with whom and how many children we decide to have. No one politician has ever been some inherently good savior who could fix anything and everything single-handedly nor an evil boogie man, who could also destroy everything Sacred all at once single-handedly either. Reality is much more gray. I’m happy to see that people have been out in the streets standing up for those who are afraid to go to school or work for fear of being deported whether legally or not. Because what’s happening isn’t OK. But I also understand the law of attraction & how the universe doesn’t respond to negatives on negatives - they just cancel each other out. Gandhi said “an eye for an eye and makes the whole world blind.” Because fear blind us and rage is blind. It’s dangerous to allow either to have all our power.

Yes, of course we need to stand up against tyranny & fascism. But we also need to envision the positive future that we want for our world & then do what we need to heal enough to birth that vision into reality.

I envision a world where we grow more of our own food, a world that’s much more reciprocal, & more communal. Where we help each other raise children with emotional intelligence, love and so much support that it’s a wonderful thing instead of stressful and impossible feeling. Where everyone is honored for their unique gifts & talents & we care for the most vulnerable as well as we would our own grandmother 💚

I would love to hear about the positive world you dream of 🙏

Teaching yoga at festivals is one ot my greatest joys.

Festivals create such a uniquely powerful sacred container for human connection, community, playful exploration, and time away from the daily grind just to explore and enjoy the beauty of nature, spirit, music, creativity and art. Bringing mindful, playful movement, breath, and meditation to people in these beautiful spaces is so rewarding and fun 🤩

I’m excited to lead a Soulful Yoga Flow + Heart Centered Guided Meditation at one of my favorites: Cascadia NW Arts and Music Festival 2025! 🎶🧘‍♀️🎨

Step away from the buzz of the festival and into your breath and body this Sunday morning at 9am at the main stage.

In this all levels flow class, we will move our bodies and stretch out our camping and dancing muscles, calm our minds, and reconnect to our own inner rhythms — all set to the backdrop of beautiful music 🎶

🌿 What to Expect: A grounding yet uplifting all-levels vinyasa flow yoga class followed by a guided 20 minute heart opening meditation surrounded by art, nature, community, and good vibes.

Bring your mat, your open heart, and your curiosity 💚

Let’s flow in the forest together ✨🙏✨
