"I've studied dance since childhood, performed, taught, lived. When my body and mind stopped agreeing with all I was putting it through I had to find a new outlet. And there was yoga and I found that yoga is dance. The mind-body dancing with the physical-body dancing with the spiritual-body all at once. I love movement, music, and a good challenge. Whether we dance together, ashtanga our brains out, or vinyasa flow with each other for a while, get ready to sweat, breathe and possibly smile."
