I have always loved movement as a way to connect with God and when I discovered the joy & peace of His presence on my own yoga mat, I was so excited to share it that I signed up for my first yoga teacher training a few months later. That was in 2014 and in 2015, I launched the Align community; offering classes in our small farmhouse studio, outdoors on our beautiful six-acre property, and later, at a local church. We moved the majority of our classes online in 2020, and this community grew as we aimed to practice consistently and continue meeting together.

Prior to teaching yoga, I worked as a labour & delivery and pediatric nurse for 12 years. We homeschool our kids, and I adore being outdoors, getting my hands in the dirt, and being “Bestie” to my toddler and sweet twin girl grandbabes.

Bringing the fullness of ourselves into union with the fullness of the Triune God is my intention and wholehearted desire. It is from that place we discover who we really are, and what we are made for.

I am a RYT 500 with Living Soul Institute and hold a Bachelor of Science in Nursing. In addition, I have over 700 hrs of training including a Master Certification in Holy Yoga, 225 hr Yoga Therapy & Trauma-Sensitive Yoga. I am also a Certified Christian Life Coach, am in Year 2 of Spiritual Direction training with Crossroads Resources and School of Spiritual Direction- and offer classes & coaching in inversions & handbalance (my favourite ways to play!) I’m passionate about sustainable & functional movement of all kinds, and about creating simple daily rhythms that embody our faith in Jesus to bring health, peace & fulfillment. I can’t wait to get to know you!
