✨ Words matter. ✨
In yoga, every instruction is more than a cue — it’s an invitation for students to deepen their experience of yoga.

The instructions we choose can either:
* Create safety or cause confusion
* Empower or pressure
* Invite presence or fuel performance

When we say “lock your knees,” the body tenses.
When we say “engage your thighs,” the body feels supported.
When we say “tuck” there is a contractive energy, when we say “ lengthen” there is an expanse of energy.

Our instruction shapes student’s experience. and creates the atmosphere of practice.

Let me know what any instructions that confuse you or instructions that deeply resonate.

This past March I took a group of yogis from all over the world to Nepal.
We explored Kathmandu, the foothills of Pokhara, and a five day trek through The Himayalas. 
It was a magical journey and paired with the practice of yoga and mediation it was transformational.

I was very lucky to have filmmaker Frohig join and capture this magical journey on film.

I am very proud to present A Yoga Journey.

A thirty minute documentary about why so many of us dedicate our lives to yoga and journey to far off places like India and Nepal to deepen our practice and our connection to Self.

The focus that happens when you have about 50 students watching you demo for the late Maty Ezraty. 

One of the main reasons I was attracted to Maty as a teacher was her ability to create presence. The way she used her voice, her dynamic and strong energy- she called you to attention: 

The first yoga sutra is #athayoganusasanam - Now the practice of yoga begins. 

Without that call to attention, it’s hard to focus the mind and be in the present moment. No matter what type of yoga you practice it’s all requiring stillness of the mind and utter presence.

Please join me Monday at  sunstone.yoga near LAX for a pop up class at 10:15am . See link in bio or visit story.

For me, Yoga isn’t just a physical practice, 
It’s a way of life.

I show up every morning to my mat as a way to show up for myself.

I connect to a higher vibration through moving with my breath in a meditative way.

I unravel deep tension and clear my mind so I start each day with a clean slate. 

The Practice helps to focus and ground me so I can plug in to the vibration that each day offers 
with more awareness and flow. 

It takes a lot of discipline to show up to your mot daily, but these benefits are worth the early mornings, the clean lifestyle, and my dedication to something greater than my ego’s desires.

Each practice presents something different that is unfolding and helps me become much more attune and present to life.

I am very grateful to have my practice support my life and deepen my relationship to myself. ❤️

What about you? Why do you show up to your mat?

What is Yoga? 🧘‍♀️

It’s a big question these days, especially with so much out there.

The Yoga Sutras which are the classic yogic texts only have 3 sutras about asana and the rest about learning to still your mind.

The Hatha Yoga Pradipika have about 40 verses on asana, and use it as a gateway to meditation.

Then why so much emphasis on yoga asana? 

In my opinion it is a gateway to the higher limbs of yoga and the more subtle energies we experience through practice. 

In yoga asana, we learn to use our breath and bandhas to access our energetic body.

We focus the mind at one point and cultivate a dristhi to calm the mental body.

And eventually as we access a state of meditation and flow we connect to a deep loving place inside called Oneness. 

Join me for Yoga Practice this Sunday at 10am - 11:30am at The centerforyogaLA.

This is my only weekend class at CFY before leaving for Europe Sept 4.

Hope to see you on the mat to celebrate the many benefits we gain from yoga practice.

Chakra refers to a wheel or a moving circle of energies.  For the chakras to come into function depends upon a higher source of energy than the physical body can provide. This is the role of kundalini, which is the concentrated energy of awareness. Only if a person has one-pointedness of mind can kundalini come into function in an harmonious manner. This energy manifest when the mind becomes free from the fragmentation of thought, emotion, and ego. 

The chakras remained closed because of spiritual ignorance, when someone regards the external world and their true reality and lives unaware of one’s true Self, which is pure awareness. The chakras can reach true openness through the inner practices of pranayama, mantra, and meditation. 

For the chakras to come into function depends upon a higher source of energy than the physical body can provide.

Did you do your sun salutations today?

There are so many benefits to these ritualistic movements.

* You connect your mind into your body, which is an excellent way to set the tone for the day.

* Moving with your breath, can help you heighten your vibration and tune in to your natural rhythms.

* Helps to energize your system and clear your mind.

* Can create focus and alertness.

And these are just a few reason reasons why I practice these daily .

In the vinyasa flow practice, Surya Namaskara means to “Place in a special way” and helps to bring awareness into each moment. 

Can we bring this step-by-step approach we gain in our practice to everything we do in our daily lives?

Hi Yogis,

I haven’t updated my profile in awhile and with some new photos wanted to share some fun facts about myself:

* I was a dancer before I became a yoga teacher and lived in New York City where I was introduced to yoga at Jiva Multki in NY, right by the L Train. We would chant and hear the train go by and that was when the yoga bug bit me!

* I did my 200 Hour Teacher Training at Yogaworks in Santa Monica with the late Maty Ezraty and Lisa Walford. I fell in love with The Ashtanga Method, which also gave me a sense of focus and stability in my late twenties and Maty became a teacher and a mentor. 

* I love the Iyengar Method and since my first training, I have continued to study and share this in my teachings as well as my love for ashtanga yoga. I believe these two methods create a lovely balance and honor the blend of precision and breath based movement. 

* I love to travel, always have, and created a life where I have the freedom to see the world and share yoga. I do believe we all have the power to design our lives, however, it takes a lot of inward work and self reflection. It’s hard to see ourselves and actually get clear on what we want.  These practices have served as a tremendous tool for me to align with a life that is authentic to my  path. 

* I met my husband, fitzjoy1love in 2017 at Wanderlust in Hollywood, Ca. Yes, he was originally a student BUT we became friends for about a year before we finally kissed! We have established a great friendship over our 8 years together, and I believe your partner should be your best friend. We both love to travel, practice yoga, and have adventurous spirits. I am grateful to have met a like minded partner that has made my life so much better.

* I don’t have any children, never had a strong desire to, and my lifestyle wasn’t aligned with it. However, I have the cutest French Bulldog ever who I am in love with and consider her my dog child. 

I hope you found this enjoyable to read and please say hello and introduce yourself if you like. 🙏

Maintaining a consistent yoga practice is key for unlocking it’s full benefits such as: 

* Improved flexibility and strength.
* Improve posture and balance.
* Reduces stress and anxiety.
* Increases energy level and overall well-being.
* Greater mental focus.

Practicing a little bit each day will have more long term benefits than trying to catch a class a couple times per week.

I have been following my bliss these days, especially after having the summer that I had last year.  I spent endless hours in the hospital thinking about how we spend so much time working , as I was craving nature and enjoyment.

Well, that’s exactly what I’m doing this summer , following my bliss and enjoying life. 

Following your bliss is not just for your own happiness, but helps you find your true purpose known as your dharma. The four laws of dharma teach us that when we honor our unique gifts and pursue what lights us, we can create a life of effortless flow that can lead us to living with purpose.

* Following your bliss, can help you tap into your creative force and allow your true self to shine.

* Pursuing what you love naturally leads you to share your energy and create connection and community. 

* When you do what you love, work feels effortless. Challenges become opportunities and you learn to achieve more without the struggle. 

* Aligning yourself with happiness lifts your vibration up. Being successful is also about staying in a place of positivity where you can uplift others to do the same.

I hope this inspires you to do what lights you up and trust in the end, you are actually moving closer to your dharma  by simply enjoying life. ♥️
