MORE ABOUT WHAT I DO & OFFER...

MY JOURNEY THROUGH THESE TRAININGS

I am an adamant believer in the body’s ability to heal and balance itself with the correct support and nourishment. At the heart of every modality is a study of stagnation and flow. My approach is integrative through a cross cultural perspective, which allows me to tailor my sessions specifically to what the clients need in the moment - mind, body & spirit. 

​

My journey began as a yoga enthusiast, leading me to complete a 200hr Yoga Teacher Training at Laughing Lotus in New York and another at Core Power in San Francisco. My yoga path expanded as I pursued a 500hr Yoga Teacher Training with Alanna Kaivalya's Kaivalya Method. To enrich my practice, I delved into courses encompassing biodiversity (Ross Rayburn), inclusion and diversity (Third Root Community Health Center, NY), trauma-informed practices (lululemon athletica NZ), and grief yoga (Paul Denniston).

​

A pivotal turn led me to Thailand, where I immersed myself in Thai Massage at the International Training Massage School. There, I explored Reflexology, Cupping, Reiki, Tok Sen, and Gua Sha.

​

Returning to the United States, I continued my journey, discovering Genius Flexibility in Santa Barbara. I delved into Resistance Flexibility and Strength Training up to Level III, recognizing the profound connections between yoga and bodywork. This realization prompted me to study myofascial release with Beth Bauchamp in New Zealand, where I also had the privilege of studying Honohono Honohono with Dion Freeman, the founder of Healing Aotearoa.

​

My commitment to healing expanded as I pursued Reiki with various masters, completing two separate Reiki Master Trainings and various level one and two trainings with other teachers. I also immersed myself in the Integrative Quantum Medicine curriculum with creator Louise Mita in New Zealand and Hawaii.

Returning to California, I deepened my knowledge with a 500hr Massage Therapy Training at the California Holistic Institute. My expertise encompasses a range of modalities, including Hot Stone Therapy, Pregnancy Massage, Myofascial Release with David Goldeen, Swedish, Deep Tissue, Acupressure, Trigger Point Therapy, Craniosacral Therapy, Zen Thai Touch/Zen Touch Shiatsu, Injury Management, Shiatsu, Touch for Health, Sports Massage, and more. My dedication to learning persisted with further studies in Orthopedic Massage, Coaching the Body, Barnes Myofascial Release, Vodder's Manual Lymphatic Drainage, and Upledger's Craniosacral Therapy.

​

Thank you for sharing in my journey thus far. I'm currently setting my sights on additional bodywork modalities from New Zealand, exploring various Myofascial techniques, delving into Hawaiian Healing, and exploring Traditional Chinese Medicine. Stay tuned for more exciting developments!
