VETERANS connection with Self, solace, healing My life experiences with the Military Family, both active duty and veterans, brought me onto my yoga mat in 2006 and into this work as a yoga teacher in 2016.

Every body and mind is capable of benefitting from this practice... all you have to do is show up. |

I only wish I would have found yoga earlier in my life."
