I like to say that I am a spiritual yogini with the heart of a dancer and the rhythm of a bassist. 

I was born in Savannah and moved back in 2006 to grow roots in the community. 

I began to pursue my holistic path after profound changes when I graduated from a 200-hour Intensive YTT from Savannah Yoga Center in 2013. 

I then began working at SYC as the Laundress/ Work Trade Angel moving on to become Studio/Facilities Manager, then back to Laundress and now a teacher.

During this whirlwind, I became a Licensed Massage Therapist in 2015 and continued to moonlight as a professional Middle Eastern Dancer, musician and Fire Performer.

I use my dance and music background to create gentle flow in vinyasa yoga, the perfect vibrational sounds for healing, and the energy to help you along the way.  

I am inspired by nature, the cosmos, and the metaphysical, so my practice remains focused on the mind, body and soul balance.

I am a spiritual yogini with a unique style that is a creative blend of self-expression and discipline. My yoga journey began many years ago when I began taking belly dance classes. Fire dance illuminates my journey as an extension of these movements. This balance of dance with a passion for music nurtures my mind and body. 

A thirst for knowledge drives me to continually expand my practice through workshops, classes, and personal growth. For me, yoga is much more than asana- it is a lifestyle that has changed my being. What started as a warm-up and cool down for dance has influenced my life with this holistic practice that harmonizes all aspects of life.

Yoga builds concentration, confidence, and flexibility as it reduces stress, increases balance, and enhances vitality. Vinyasa Flow Yoga is a great workout for the mind and body, a blending of breath and bodily alignment.

I cultivate an artist’s vision of the world, one which isn’t sated until I can translate it and share it on stage or in the studio. I am also an upright bassist and singer/songwriter.  The majority of my dance costumes are designed and tailored at home. 

When the sun falls, I dance in flames as a fire performer and when the music moves me, I belly dance.
