I'M A SEASONED YOGA PRACTITIONER WHO BEGAN AT THE AGE OF 13...

It started in (1976) with my first beloved teacher June LaSalvia. A Nashville native, I grew up with a yogini/artist mother, and a father who was a Methodist minister & Civil Rights Activist; both parents being life long instigators and servants of social justice as well as musicians. My practice, teaching, and kirtan offerings are deeply rooted in Bhakti Yoga & Kundalini Tantra.

REAL ESTATE... ALSO A DEVOTIONAL RELATIONSHIP BUSINESS

I joyfully serve folks transitioning into and out of their homes, being a realtor with Village Real Estate since 1997. Looking to move gracefully? I would be delighted to discuss your vision for your next move.

INFLUENCES

My practice, teaching, and kirtan offerings are deeply rooted in Bhakti Yoga & Kundalini Tantra. My teachers have been many but the strongest present influences are:  Saul David Raye, Jai Uttal, & Sally Kempton.

I have been a devoted student of Kabbalah (Jewish mysticism) since 2000, under the guidance of my treasured teacher Susan Austin-Crumpton.

MY STUDY DEDICATION AND DEVOTION TO MY PRACTICE DEEPENS MY UNDERSTANDING

…and experience of living life in an authentic & fully co~creative way … the way of relationship … with self, other, & all — both human and divine. One of the highlights of my life to date is sharing these practices of devotion in service at Riverbend Maximum Prison for men.

PROFESSIONAL BACKGROUND

My playful, passionate, and energetic style encourages inner curiosity, listening, spontaneity, and exploration of one’s unique experience.

I teach from a life richly lived, drawing on my background in the arts, theatre, dance, and music. I administered therapeutic bodywork for 12 years, which lead into a 4-year Somatic/Transpersonal psychotherapy training.  I was certified and worked with individuals, couples, & groups in Boulder, Colorado.
