Start Your Journey Here

After graduating from Sam Houston State University in Huntsville Texas, I dedicated 35 years to teaching elementary school. Between the demands of my career and raising three children, I started searching for something to help conquer my stress.

In 2016, I began practicing yoga in a quaint little studio in Willis, Texas. It was there that my yoga teacher, Jan Parker Dial, encouraged me to become a yoga teacher.

My newfound passion led me to the Living Yoga Program in Austin Texas where I completed my 200-Hour certification in 2018 which was one of the best decisions I have ever made. I began teaching shortly before completing the program and have been teaching ever since.

In addition to my RYT-200, I have earned additional certifications from the Accessible Yoga Teacher Training Program, Yin Yoga, and various meditation trainings. I am a life-long learner and love to dive into other trainings to improve my own personal yoga and meditation practices as well as apply what I learn to classes I teach.

I currently teach gentle slow flow Hatha yoga appropriate for all levels. I also lead guided meditation sessions and Yoga Nidra.

It is both humbling and gratifying to witness others find their true self, inner beauty, and find peace in a world of uncertainty.

Wellness in the Woods is unlike most yoga studios in that it is surronded by earth's magnificent natural beauty. This quaint little studio offers a blissful hideaway that aims to promote health and well-being for all in mind, body and spirit.

We strive to create a peaceful, harmonious space to dive deep within to restore balance and bring a sense of calm.
