I am currently teaching live classes and online classes at Yoga Changes in Santa Monica.
I have been practicing yoga since 1972 and I taught at Yogaworks in Santa Monica for 26 years from 1997 to 2023. I was a professional dancer and started to teach yoga when I retired from dance.
One of my specialties is teaching yoga to dancers and I have taught yoga in the dance departments of California Institute of the Arts, California State University at Long Beach and Loyola Marymount University.
At Yoga Changes I mainly teach classes for beginners and gentle yoga. I teach all levels but I really love introducing yoga to people who have never experienced the practice before – everyone can enjoy and benefit greatly from the practice.
I was a Teacher Trainer at YogaWorks and led Yogaworks Teacher Trainings for over 16 years. I led trainings in Los Angeles, Santa Barbara, San Francisco, Orange County, Las Vegas, Boulder, Phoenix, Vancouver, Calgary, Paris, Osaka, Tokyo, Oslo, Nuremberg, Beijing and Xiamen. I was the Director of Teacher Trainer Development in Los Angeles (mentoring other trainers) and I taught in the Yogaworks Professional (300 hour) program. I assessed teachers who came up for Yogaworks Certification in Los Angeles and I assessed teachers at Yogaworks sublist auditions.
If I’m not teaching yoga – then I must be riding my bike, listening to music or playing with my grandkids. Coffee goes well with all those activities.
