I have been drawn to both physical fitness and the outdoors from a young age. I love the feeling I get both physically and mentally when I am active, however, there was always some underlying layer of anxiety that I couldn’t shake. That’s when yoga changed my life and brought me the inner peace, and mind/body connection that I’ve been looking for.

In 2000 I earned a BS at San Diego State University in Recreation Administration – Systems Management. Since college I have received my diploma in Nutrition, Diet, and Health Science, and earned 12 Early Childhood Education units. I am CPR / AED certified for infants, children, and adults. In 2012 I completed the children’s yoga certification through “Its Yoga, Kids” in San Francisco, Ca. and in 2014 "Kidding Around Yoga" in San Diego, Ca.

Being a mom of three kids (ages 19, 17, and 15), there was no better way to combine my passion for children, yoga, fitness, and nutrition. I believe in living a fun, active and healthy lifestyle for myself, as well as my kids. I am active in running, hiking, yoga, pilates, and cross training. I feel it is important to raise our children to know and appreciate the things that make us strong.

I believe it is never too early or late to start Yoga. Join us as we spread the fun and laughter, and help our families grow together. I want to enable children to gain abilities to help them achieve a healthy and happy mind, body and heart, now and in the future.
