Thanks to Kendall Inman and Living Yoga Dallas, I have had the opportunity to study with many talented yogis - Shiva Rea, Rod Stryker, Seane Corn, Judith Lassiter, Beryl Bender Birch, Eric Schiffman, Rodney Yee, Baron Baptiste and more. I have also enjoyed learning from and sharing the teachings of Dharma Mittra and Desiree Rumbaugh. And I have absorbed much from the rising yoga stars that we host regularly at Tsada - Kelly Haas, Eagle, Pradeep, Michelle Bouvier, Karl Straub, Blair Lewis, Cassandra deLarios, Liz Tucker and Kendall Inman.

Love and thanks go to Ro Chapa and Sheri Cherokee for guiding me through the Alpha-Omega ashtanga-based 200-HR RYT program all while allowing individual style and creative spirit to stay at the forefront. I think of my current teaching style as a complimentary mix of yin & yang - reinforcing a balance of strength & softness, of power & surrender, of challenge & acceptance. Always acknowledging that the physical practice is only one small part of the wisdom that is yoga. The mat is a beautiful microcosmic school of life and everybody's experience is going to be different. It's a blessing to be part of the journey.
