Dancing Otter Healing Arts

What's your glimmer today? That little thing that brought you joy, brought a smile to your face, or gave you a spark of hope?

Here's mine: I got to sub a class at my beloved dance studio (gratitude & shout-out to ), which was full of amazing humans I get to also share dance with, AND it was the first time one of my ballet besties has ever done yoga!

It fills my heart so full to share this practice with people, no matter if it's for physical fitness, mental health, or personal growth. We each have different goals, and there is a practice within yoga for everyone. I love that I get to create a space for people to feel safe enough to try something new & expand their understanding 💜

That feeling when you come in to teach class & find a beautiful note 😍😍😍 I'm so blessed and grateful to call Flying Heron my home studio 🙏💜

Friends!!!! Welcome to a new month! Daylight is lasting longer, the sun is peeking out a little more.... And a new schedule is up!

Come catch class with me at Monday evenings at 5:30 AND Tuesday mornings at 9am! (Or take class with Heidi & Camellia at whatever time works best for you💜)

Whether you're prepping for the spring busy season, looking for a break from being busy, cross-training, expanding your practice, or trying something brand new, I've got you.

I've been far more quiet than I intended to be this season. And that's ok.

I found myself in a deep cycle of feeling everything. There has been so much that has shown up to be seen, held, processed, and laid to rest. It has been hard, and overwhelming at many points, but so incredibly rewarding. Old coping mechanisms have crept in, old patterns have reared their heads and demanded to be faced with new eyes and a new heart.

I can honestly say, though, even in the midst of all the shedding:

I am more Myself than I have ever been.

I'm still learning. Still building trust with my body. Still listening to my heart with all the depth I'm capable of. So much of my Self and my life feels brand new, and there is so much space in both my world and my soul. That by itself is overwhelming sometimes. But I know that I can handle it. I know that I am deeply loved and supported, but I also know that my relationship with my Self is strong now, and I have everything that I need.

I'll be back soon, I promise. There's a bit more to do in my internal landscape, but I'm doing it. Stay tuned 💜

Tonight marks the beginning of my 7th year as a yoga teacher. As a guide, as a space holder, as a vessel and a witness for healing & discovery. I could not ask for a higher honour.

When I walked into my first yoga class, as a very injured teenager in chronic pain, all I wanted was to walk without pain. Now, when I step on my mat, it's much different. A thousand hours of education & half a lifetime of practice will do that to you, I suppose. Through yoga, I've lived a miracle. I see them happen in real time.

And I'm never going to shut up about it.

You don't have to believe in yoga, but if you show up & try, the magic will happen 💜

The holiday season is officially here! Whether you are gifting health & wellness to others, or taking care of yourself this season and beyond, I'm here for you!!

Why buy a package? Healing takes time, but it IS possible. Consistency is so important for both our physical and mental health during times of stress. I want to see you (or your loved one) have your best outcomes, no matter the season, and celebrate you as you grow and thrive. Committing to multiple meetings ensures that your progress is not lost or stalled.

All sessions are carefully cultivated towards your goals and needs. All bodies & all abilities are welcome. Each session is led with trauma-informed protocols in place, and post-session support and integration is available.

All rates are discounted through 1/31/26. Printed or emailed gift certificates available by request. Paid sessions must be used within 3 months of purchase.

There is SO much more to Yoga than just being bendy, or doing handstands!! (Fun fact: I can't do a handstand, or half of the things you see on Instagram!)
