Hi there! Welcome to Budding Yoga.
Do you want your kids to have play as a form of learning?
Do you feel that that slowing down sometimes can give the time we need to grow and change?
Everyday, life (and yoga) just requires us to breathe and stay flexible.
And I feel deep in my heart that personal and meaningful connection can change the world, whether it’s just for the one kid in front of us or for an entire community.
That’s why I love what I do so much. And why I’ve taken time to back it up with lots of study, practice, and continuous personal growth so that I can be my best in helping people connect with themselves and everyone around them by focusing on mindfulness, wellness, and fun.
With with an undergraduate degree in Elementary Education, a K-12 license in special education, a Masters of Education in special education with a focus on Autism Spectrum Disorders, and multiple yoga certifications, I've made sure Budding Yoga materials are built for fun and growth.
You'll find teacher trainings, family workshops, and flows and lesson plans that are ready for the classroom, home, or even the backyard!
I'm so excited you're here. Let's get moving!
