My goal as a teacher is to provide uplifting, nourishing and educational classes to assist my students personal growth and transformation.
As a licensed Massage Therapist, Yoga Teacher and certified Yoga Tune Up® teacher my work is heavily influenced by my knowledge of anatomy, biomechanics and yoga philosophy, and my primary focus is longevity in practice. My passion and drive to understand the body comes from my own personal journey to a pain free life after suffering a severe spinal injury as a child. I received an associates degree in massage therapy in 2003 and began working with modalities such as deep tissue, lomi lomi, herbal poultice massage and Thai massage. In 2009 I received my first yoga teaching certificate and have been teaching both private and group classes ever since. In February 2018 I completed my certification to become a Yoga Tune Up® teacher and currently teach YTU workshops and classes in and around Zürich, Switzerland.
