Unfold onto yourself
Get To Know
Growing up in rural Eastern Townships, with a mother delving into holistic medicine and Eastern healing & philosophical practices, I first witnessed yoga at home in my early childhood. I became fascinated with meditation and its most esoteric aspects, as well as the concept of dharma, in my formative years. It wasn't until 2005 that, in college, I started practicing yoga here and there, and a few years later, I stumbled into Ashtanga Yoga, which ended up changing my life in the best ways.
I have since become a devoted practitioner & teacher of Ashtanga, Restorative, Nidra & Power Yoga & Yoga Tune Up. I hope to transmit these powerful practices in the most traditional & accessible way. I also play crystal bowls to enhance the groundedness for more gentle practices.
I offer customized private & semi-private yoga classes at your location or mine, which can include singing bowls and chimes.
My Approach
Every person and body is different and has a distinct history and set of needs. Therefore, while my approach is alignment-based, it is guided by the quality of the breath and the ability to find equanimity in each moment of every posture. I strive to live by and teach the 8 limbs of yoga and adapt each session to the person in front of me at that moment.
To practice yoga is to practice balance. Balance also in more active/yang & passive/yin practices. I encourage everyone to cultivate both types of practices by offering classes like Ashtanga, Vinyasa, Power and Restorative, Nidra and Yin.
Yoga is more than just movement. It is a tool to help us become and unfold onto our true selves.
