With a BBA from Baruch College and a 20 year career in financial services as a stay at home mom, the study of yoga became fascinating. With a daily practice, I completed a certification to teach in 2002 and began offering yoga classes in Staten Island for adults and girl scouts. In 2007, together with Hadassah Kruger, an experienced yoga teacher and yoga therapist, we created a Yoga Alliance school, “Professional Teachers’ School of Yoga” and qualified NYCDOE Physical Education teachers to teach yoga. In 2009, opening the center, Time for Yoga presented an opportunity to meet many wonderful people and host events to support our community. After the business folded in 2013 obtaining an MAT from Empire State College, enabled me to teach mathematics, physical education, and health/yoga to middle and high school students of the NYCDOE Daily habits of yoga, exercise, rest, and healthy eating prove to enhance the aging process on so many levels. Spending time with others and in nature through jogging, hiking, biking, or in stillness is extremely inspiring. I am grateful for my family, friends, and teachers who support my journey. My intention is to encourage others in the development of personal practices that alleviate stress in order to promote an easeful body. a peaceful mind, and the sustenance of the precious energy.
