I fell in love with yoga in 2008….after being an avid “gym rat” for years; I took my first yoga class and NEVER returned to a gym – NOT ONCE! It’s that feeling “within” that had me hooked. After practicing for five years I went a little deeper. I received my 230 RYT Certification in Vinyasa Flow in 2013 from Asheville Yoga Center where I trained with Stephanie Keach, Joe Taft and Sierra Hollister. I continue to further my education by attending workshops in various locations and an array of instructors. I also have a 30 hour certification in Kunga Yoga (which simply means “to serve”) which I received with Noelle Whittington at Wilmington Yoga Center.

I was born and raised in Gaston County and just recently moved to Belmont. This year I celebrate 35 years of marriage to an amazing man; I have two children totally grown and on their own whom I am very proud of! Being an avid walker brings me as much joy as being on my mat!! Teaching and “turning people on” to yoga is a true passion of mine and I sure hope to see you on your mat. Yoga is life changing for me in both mind and body and I hope to help you find that “Sweet Peace” as well.
