TEACHING STYLE: My classes are inspired by the playlist and designed to maximize time in the studio. As a teacher I like to encourage, challenge, and create a space where all students can grow stronger and healthier together.

INSPIRED BY: A good book, traveling to faraway. places, watching someone fulfill a dream.

FAVORITE POSE: In Barre there aren’t really poses but my favorite part of class is glute work. As the largest muscle in our body, the glutes quite literally carry us through our days. As for my favorite yoga pose, I love airplane pose–it makes me feel strong, balanced, and focused.

A RECURRING THOUGHT: How much iced coffee is too much iced coffee?

FAVORITE QUOTE: “One sees clearly only with the heart. Anything essential is invisible to the eyes” – The Little Prince by Antoine De Saint-Exupery

A NON-NEGOTIABLE: Alone time to recharge and a daily walk with my dog.

MOUNTAINS OR BEACH: Mountains. I don’t think you could be raised in Sandpoint and not love the mountains; however, the beach is also wonderful.
