Why I Practice:
GYROTONIC® work makes me feel at home in my body. It has helped me to connect more fully through my kinesphere, building strength in mobility. I take practicing this method as an opportunity to continuously learn and grow as a mover, pushing myself beyond the boundaries of what I think is possible.
Why I Teach:
I seek to empower people through movement. Whether it be to build connected strength or to relieve pain, I use teaching as a means to help others find confidence and ease in their bodies.
