I’ve always been drawn to the calming and metaphysical aspects of yoga, meditation, and somatic work, especially after navigating the stress of a long career in Corporate Finance and Contract Management. Over 35 years ago, I stepped into my first yoga class and immediately felt its profound effect on my mental health and overall well-being. The quiet movement, breathwork, and reconnection with my authentic self became essential to me.
As my practice deepened, I was inspired to study Reiki and soon discovered how beautifully it complements yoga. Both practices have helped me feel more grounded, mindful, and grateful, benefits I love sharing with others. Reiki is a gentle, hands-on (or near-body) energy healing technique that supports emotional balance and physical, mental, and spiritual well-being. Sessions are personalized, focusing on the body’s energy centers (chakras) to encourage deep relaxation and healing.
I became certified in Hatha yoga 18 years ago, studying with Anusara-trained teachers at Namaste Yoga Studio in Cleveland, OH. I’ve continued learning through workshops with master teachers like Todd Norian, Doug Keller, and Desiree Rumbaugh. I’m also certified as a Reiki Master in both the Usui and Karuna traditions.
Today, I teach a gentle yoga class infused with Reiki at Be the Change and lead the studio’s Reiki Training Certification Program and Sound Bath + Reiki workshops. I also offer private Reiki sessions and one-on-one yoga classes that include meditation and energy work.
