Offering accessible practices for physical and mental well-being through a lifetime.
In my classes you will find Functional and Foundational yoga practices to support every body at every level. These small group classes focus on moving the body with mindfulness and care, building stability and working within the parameters of each student’s needs. A great starting class for those with little yoga experience or those wanting to return to yoga and learn the fundamentals.
The body is moved, breath is honored, and energy restored.
My classes are offered in the seasonal seaside town of El Sargento, BCS, Mexico.
It’s quite possible that here is the only time you practice yoga. Generally our lives seem to be more relaxed here, making more space to practice. It’s also possible that you have a solid yoga practice at home and would like to continue your practice while you are here.
Either way, my classes offer function and foundation to support every body at every level.

What is Functional Yoga?
Functional Yoga is less of a specific type of yoga, and more of an approach. I want you to experience the pose versus worrying about what it looks like and what other people think of you. This idea liberates us from excuses and unrealistic expectations. It’s an approach that can be applied to everything we do on and off the mat.
I’m more interested in what you experience when doing the pose.
Are you feeling the stretch where you want it to be?
Are you tuned to your emotional body?
Are you mentally in class or going through the motions?
What is Foundational Yoga?
I don’t try to move through as many postures as possible in an hour. Each class is formed from basic yoga postures. You are given time and space to express these postures. The focus is stability, and understanding how you experience each pose. Our bodies need to be stable as we age. Yoga helps us accept that every day can be different mentally and physically.
Movement without breath awareness is only half the journey so learning how to reduce the effort in the body and allow space to add the breath into the posture helps form a deeper self-connection and greater inner awareness.
~ Becoming Present ~
One of the true benefits of yoga is what happens outside the practice. How long can you hold on to the calm after class? Maybe it’s gone after someone cuts you off leaving the parking lot? Maybe it leaves after you turn on your phone and scroll social media. Maybe you have never felt it because you are focused on other people in class instead of looking inside.
We don’t receive these benefits if our focus is on just ‘getting through’ the physical class. Developing a deeper practice can carry over into our daily activities. We focus more efficiently on tasks we need to accomplish in our day. We can also find more stability with our emotions when dealing with difficult people and situations.

Courses
Tai Chi & Chi Gong
February 2023
In this month’s classes, let’s explore some gentle movements inspired from Tai Chi and Qi Gong. What’s the difference? Well, Tai Chi is meditative martial art with movements in a set series. Qi Gong offers similar movements but repeats one movement based on specific situations. Maybe you want to slow down your energy to get to sleep versus taking a sleeping pill or alcoholic beverage? Or maybe you are feeling tired and want to revive your energy versus drinking a cup of coffee.
Developing a Home Practice Series
March 2023
Group classes are a great way to learn more about yoga, strengthen your willpower, and find new friendships. However, let’s face it, sometimes the last thing you want is to have to set your alarm to get in the car, fight traffic, and find a parking spot to take a yoga class. Maybe you can’t seem to find a class that fits your schedule or your style?
In this 4-week Series we will discuss how to create a home practice. Each week you will receive a short sequence take home. Your home practice doesn’t have to be an hour long. The goal is to create a new habit that helps you find peace and calm anytime you want it and not when a class is offered.
Restorative Alignment w/Sensory Experience
March 8th, 6:00pm
75-minutes ~ 250mxn
This class will help activate your body’s relaxation response. Giving yourself permission to calm the mind and release tension and stress in the body. Together we will explore, using props to support our bodies in poses with minimal muscular strength, facilitating deep release in the connective tissue and calming the nervous system.
Wing Foiling Workshop
January 26th ~ La Ventana
February 24th ~ El Sargento
March 15th ~ La Ventana
Are you a wing foiler and looking to advance on the water? Are you a future wing foiler and looking to prepare your body for this sport? Then this workshop is for you!
In order to practice wing foiling to the best of your ability, hours of training are required. Yoga can be an effective complimentary exercise. Not only does it help to improve your flexibility, strength, and balance but yoga also develops your ability to stay focused.
In this course we will address common injuries associated with the sport. Practice movements that mimic foiling and learn how to safely get back on foil after falling off the board.
2.5-hour Workshop- 500MXN
