ABOUT OUR FOUNDER

I have been practicing yoga for more than 20 years, and the benefits of increased flexibility, core strength, balance, posture, and a feeling of inner poise are just a few of yoga’s gifts to me over the years.

​

In 2019, I decided to deepen my personal Yoga practice by attending an intensive Yoga Teacher Training session being offered through South Okanagan Yoga Academy (SOYA).

 

The training included many facets of yoga that were unfamiliar to me at the time; history, philosophy and prayer, to name a few, as well as other teachings that I had not previously associated with yoga-like meditation, anatomy, chakras and breathing techniques.

​

Throughout the training, I felt the threads of my life’s passions weaving themselves into one purpose—to cultivate harmony in the world by teaching Yoga and other related practices, ideas and principles.

 

The final thread came together when a rarely used family room on the second floor of my garage was converted to a yoga studio, transforming what had once seemed wasteful into a space that feels so right it appears to have been designed for this purpose from the very start.

Welcome to my studio, Cultivating Harmony.
