Yoga has been part of my life on and off since childhood, when I used to help my mom teach at the community center in our home town.  In high school one of my favorite dance instructors led us through savasana at the end of each ballet class; as an undergrad I returned to yoga for relief from a hectic and challenging course load; after college, when work and wanderlust had me travelling all over the place, yoga classes offered a lovely bit of consistency.

 Most recently I returned to yoga for the intellectual challenge of teacher training and the spiritual discipline of the practice itself.  I suspect that I will never tire of learning about and experiencing the subtle but powerful connection between mind, body and spirit.

 Now for the other bits:  I’m married to a spectacular guy and we have two brilliant (of course) daughters who keep us hopping.  Other creatures under our roof include one fat cat, one sleek kitty, two bickering parakeets and a loveable great dane.  If we’re not moving in some fashion (ballet, yoga, golf), we’re making things…paintings, sculptures, fairy houses, you name it.  Travel is still a passion, and we like to leave the country as often as we can swing it…there’s a huge world to experience out there!
