Credentials

At its core, Yoga is about access, equity, and unity. I recognize my privileges have allowed me to pursue in-depth academic study over many years, opportunities that might highlight societal inequities given the exchange of time, money, and human labor.

I have studied with some of the most highly respected, world-renowned Yoga therapists, teachers, and medical professionals across a range of lineages and specialties. It is both my humble honor and responsibility to offer the wisdom they have passed down. If my credentials might inform your decision to work together, I offer my educational background and training below.
