Education: B.S. in Nursing from North Dakota State University
Certification: I completed my 200hr Yoga Teacher Training at Sadhana School of Yoga in Casper, Wyoming in 2024. Certified in Basic Life Support and Advanced Cardiac Life Support through the American Heart Association.
Personal Bio: I am new to the yoga teacher community and excited to be here! I grew up in Austin, MN participating in dance from the ages of 3 to 18 years old. I have always taken to the creative aspect of choreography. After graduating nursing school, I was looking for something to get me back into fitness. It was then that I started yoga sculpt and fell in love with the group energy and combination of strength and flexibility. Shortly after I moved to Casper, Wyoming.
I struggled at first not being able to find sculpt classes. It was then that I found my second home, Wyoming Yoga and Wellness. It was here that I learned the foundations and spiritual aspect of yoga. It went from a desire to be active to a need to find peace through my practice. After a few short months of practicing I began pursuing my yoga teacher certification. Since then, I have moved back to Austin, MN. I am beyond grateful to be able to share my passion and give back to the community I grew up in.
My classes are heavily influenced by yogic philosophy and whatever is inspiring me in the moment. I use intentional tools such as music, pranayama (breathing techniques), mantra, mudras, meditation and yoga props to enrich my classes, allowing my students to feel like they are continuously learning and deepening their practice. I have a fiery spirt and enjoy bringing heat and intensity into my classes.
