Join a Yoga or Ayurveda Workshop
From Yin to Yamas, Chakras to Ayurveda, the ancient wisdom of the Vedas has never been more relevant for how we live our lives. I use my extensive training to communicate this wisdom to you in an approachable, yet thorough manner, in a wide range of workshops in the Twin Cities area.

AYURVEDIC Rest Up
A Seasonal Workshop Series for Deep Restoration and Balance
We all lead full lives, and our bodies and minds often operate in overdrive. Ayurvedic Rest Up is an invitation to pause—offering a calming reset during key seasonal transitions. This 90-minute workshop blends restorative yoga, hands-on assists, aromatherapy, and massage to help you reconnect, release long-held tension, lower stress, and restore your energy.
You’ll also be introduced to foundational principles of Ayurveda—the ancient “science of life”—to support balance and harmony both on and off the mat.
Often called yoga’s “sister science,” Ayurveda teaches us how to align our bodies, minds, and daily routines with the natural rhythms of the seasons and the five elements. In this four-part series, you’ll experience deep rest while gaining simple, practical takeaways to help you live with greater awareness and ease.
Yoga Philosophy-Yamas & Niyamas
Do you often wonder where yoga comes from? What does it mean to be a yogi? Have you noticed that yoga has affected all aspects of your life? Take your practice deeper by studying the Yamas & Niyamas, the ethical guidelines outlined in the first two limbs of Patanjali’s 8-limbed path in the Yoga Sutras.
In this discussion and lecture-based workshop, we will dive deep into what it means to be a yogi on and off your mat, and by sharing real life examples, make the material relatable, practical and relevant. The study of the Yamas & Niyamas will enrich your practice and your life. All levels welcome.

Intro to Ayurveda
Ayurveda translates from Sanskrit as the “science of life.” We are each born with a certain constitution, or dosha, that determines our personalities, body types, food preferences, emotions, etc. In this workshop, you will learn how to determine your own personal dosha and which breath techniques, yoga styles, postures, foods, and mudras correspond with your particular makeup. The workshop is intended for students of all levels and will also include a short physical practice exploring each dosha and its properties.
You will leave the workshop with a better understanding of this ancient science that will add a new layer of depth to your yoga practice and help you find balance beyond the mat using special techniques designed for your particular dosha.

Intro to Yoga Anatomy
Want to learn about anatomy and how understanding the skeleton and muscles enriches your yoga practice and teaching? This workshop will give both students and teachers a firm foundation in the basic anatomical movements, bones and muscles, as pertains to the yoga practice.
Get to know your body and how to identify common misalignments on and off your mat. From an energetic perspective, when our bones are aligned, our energy can flow more freely, instilling a sense of ease within structure.
