In this experiential-movement, spinal-hygiene, yoga-playshop you will learn to release the psoas via the connective pathways to your hips, sacrum and spine . This will be a juicy exploration on how to best nurture your body, using props to safely go deeper into asanas.

She was introduced to dance and Yoga as a child, and has had the great fortune of studying with many master teachers including Phattabhi Jois, Richard Freeman, Nicki Doane, Eddie Modestini, Brian Legere, Anna Forest, Annie-b Parson and Yogi Bhajan.
