“I love to travel, and had the opportunity to participate in a yoga instructor retreat in Siem Reap, Cambodia in April 2015. My passion for health and fitness initially sparked my interest in yoga, but it has now expanded into a way of life. I enjoy blending styles and provide attention to breath and alignment. With a background in massage therapy, and a degree in psychology, I focus on providing a balanced mind-body connection to my classes. My positive energy inspires students to discover their own strength and happiness by practicing yoga.”

“I started my yoga journey back in 2011 when a dear friend told me I'd never be the same after I went to a class...and she was right! I instantly fell in love and began to explore all forms of yoga for 5 years. I have been an avid athlete and runner my entire life and after suffering a few injuries, I felt I lost my connection between my mind and body. With my discovery of yoga, I rebuilt that connection and I feel more empowered than ever. When I moved to the mountains in 2015 to pursue my passion for all things outdoors, I decided to dive into 200 HR YTT and continue to expand my knowledge and passion.

I love to create a powerful classes that help students leave feeling revitalized, confident, and fully present. I also love helping my students to deepen their connection with breath, mind, and body...all while having fun and finding their path to self-discovery on and off their mat!”

“I started practicing yoga in 2004 back in Massachusetts. After facing many life changes and a family tragedy, yoga was the one thing that kept me moving on the right track and kept my hopes up. Since that time, I have explored many styles of yoga, my passion being traumatic yoga therapy.

I teach a gentle flow in the form of restorative and yoga therapy focusing my offerings on connecting the mind and body with the breath, adapting my lessons to meet the individual’s goals. I provide a class that is tailored to your needs whether it be to gain relief from chronic pain, facilitate injury recover, improve flexibility, reduce stress, improve well-being, ease depression or simply retain your youthfulness and energy. I provide a warm and safe environment for students and include pranayama, gentle flows, holding postures until the breath becomes steady, guided imagery and relaxation.”

"My yoga journey stems from a love of movement, in all forms. Before beginning my path as a yogi, I pushed my body to extremes—as an Ironman triathlete, surfer, backcountry skier, and marketing-communications entrepreneur. Yoga gave me a deep and unexpected sense of balance. I believe in embracing the adventure of life, in constant exploration, in the pursuit of growth, and in overflowing gratitude for every. single. beautiful. moment.

My classes are designed to stimulate a balanced paradox — exploring the depth of the physical to nourish the inner journey of the mind and soul. I envision yoga, at its prime expression, to be a personal exploration—as unique and beautifully designed as each individual on the path… if only we can trust ourselves enough to inquire within… and slow down enough to hear our own innate wisdom."

"I am a passionate yogi + wellness blogger with a thirst for adventure and seeking the good stuff in life. After leaving my demanding corporate marketing job in 2014 to pursue teaching full time, I found a completely new outlook on life and understand the stress and sensory-overload my students face on a daily basis all too well.

I completed a 200-hour intensive training in Bali, and bring the spirituality and beauty discovered there with me into every class I teach. I have also spent additional time expanding my practice with renowned teachers Kathryn Budig, Maty Ezraty, Margo Kellison Lightburn and Noah Maze, all of whom I consider to be inspirational in my approach to yoga.

In 2015, I began dynamic anatomy study with international movement educator Dr. Eric Franklin. I am currently on the discovery path of combining Franklin Method dynamic imagery theory with yoga and am seeing mind-blowing results. I am somewhat of an anatomy ‘nerd’, closeted computer geek, francophile, wanderlust gypsy, and free spirit all rolled into one. I live to eat, dance to good jams, and teach people how to rock a handstand."

“I stumbled into yoga while I was living in Columbia – I was dragged (benevolently) to a class (taught in Spanish) and was convinced to keep coming back mostly as a way to rehab a post-surgery knee. My knee found its way to health, but I had cracked open a door to a mesmerizing practice and passion. I studied for a year under Sivananda teachers, and then traveled to receive my first training in Brazil. After moving to the magical snow-globe of Breckenridge to teach kid ski lessons, I pursued a second training to diversify my understanding and ability to teach various styles.

Yoga has been a vital component to my own physical, mental, and emotional health and a catalyst for self-discovery. In teaching, I aim to provide accessible classes for all levels. My goal is to encourage students to challenge themselves to turn inwards, towards body, mind & breath, with compassion, kindness and curiosity for themselves. I am overflowing-ly grateful to share this practice and passion.”

"I've been dealt a handful of tragedy in my life. More than any one person should have to go through and yet I know that others have experienced an even darker story. Through this life travel, I sometimes had tools to help me through and sometimes I did not. Meditation. Yoga. Slowing down absolutely has changed my life. My relationships. The way I choose to interact with the world. It is my desire to share these tools with others, hoping that they not only use them on a yoga mat or in a studio but in life. Because how we show up every single day is what truly matters."

“My yoga journey began as a professional snowboarder. Yoga not only improved my athletic prowess but brought clarity and presence to all parts of my life, it became my anchor - providing balance, connection, and radiance as I traveled to snowboard competitions around the world.

These experiences shaped my journey and heartened me to strive towards the full potentiality of life, to follow my dreams, to revel in moments of everyday magic, to teach yoga. I blend alignment, breath, creative sequencing and intention steeped in the traditions of Tantra Hatha Yoga to inspire courage, grace, and freedom from my students.

I am a dedicated student of Rod Stryker and draw from my study of ParaYoga, Tantra Hatha Yoga, and the simple yet profound practices of Ayurveda to guide students in an authentic way towards greater health, vitality and connection in all parts of their life.”

“Having initially found yoga over a decade ago, I would describe my ongoing experience as a path of discovery, healing and connection. The practice of yoga has been a gladiator of transformation in my life and in teaching I have discovered a passion for holding the space of that possibility for others.

Yoga teaches us that the barriers between the conscious self and the experience of knowing who we really are as pure source energy are birthed in the chatter of our minds and that the most direct path to the mind is through the body. I am deeply honored to be able to offer years of experience teaching movement to help guide you through a safe asana practice that builds strength and flexibility while also incorporating breath work and meditation to provide a holistic experience for mind, body and spirit.”

"I have been practicing yoga for the past 16 years in Colorado and abroad. After becoming a 200 RYT, my goal has been to have yoga accessible to all ages and abilities. I therefore offer a wide variety of postures in each practice. My primary focus is geared toward athletes and includes injury prevention techniques in many of my classes. The physical asana practice is very important; however, the pranayama breath work and meditation are key points in every class. My classes embody the true meaning of yoga by enveloping a mind – body connection. I have a passion for travel and often offer domestic and international retreats."

"I first discovered yoga in college, and have been a dedicated student ever since. I came to yoga for the physical strength & flexibility I experienced, and stayed for the inward exploration and growth I found. I completed my RYT-200 in 2018 through Meta Yoga Schools right here in Breckenridge, Colorado, and am now working on my Masters in Mindfulness-Based Counseling & Psychology. In my classes, I strive to create an open space for my community of students to dig deeper into the self and utilize yoga to improve mind, body, & spirit connections.

I really enjoy sequencing poses that help balance and compliment the energetic nature of the lifestyle here in Colorado. I specialize in curating strong, intuitive, and empowering vinyasa classes. My classes are infused with intention, contemplative practice, breath work, and meaning to provide a fulfilling class and introspective experience. My goal is to inspire students to be their best self, and to help them thrive, both on and off of the mat."
