Biography
*Special Needs
*Trauma informed
*Gait/Alignment based
Certified in kids/adult yoga and ski coaching – I love mentoring kids and blending movement into everyday life and breath. My motto is “moderation in movement” and my focus is on every population working with their individual challenges and strengths.
A homeschooling veteran of 15 plus years I’ve come to realize my love for helping children grow with compassion and presence. I have been involved with the Camphill movement for over three decades and have embraced the idea of diverse learning communities and the benefits of all inclusiveness to foster community and unity when it comes to abilities, ways of learning and philosophies. I love connecting the dots of structured movement technique with the free “spiritness” children inherently possess.
Mindful Movement is key for everyone!

Biography
I have been a Special Education Teacher for over 15 years and have found yoga to be incredibly helpful in my own life and in the lives of my students. I teach a yoga class for children with special needs. I also teach groups in conjunction with speech therapists that incorporate communication skills with the practive. I currently teach students with Autism, Cognitive Disabilities, other developmental disabilities, and ADHD.
I enjoy teaching children with special needs and their siblings together to help them develop stronger relationships. Growing up with a sister with special needs taught me the value of finding experiences and activities that can be shared. I enjoy a focus on using the movements and breathing to help children develop greater self-control, emotional-awareness, body-awareness, and communication skills. I do this in both the personalized and group settings. Please contact me for further details related to specific needs.
