We all have the power to heal from within.
The clients who usually seek out my guidance are those looking to create balance and joy in their lives. They may be dealing with a variety of health challenges, whether physical, mental, emotional or simply interested in learning poses and building confidence to attend a class. In addition, I work with stressed-out teenagers trying to manage so many expectations and competitive athletes aiming to improve their focus, performance, and recovery.
Much of my experience is in the fields of mental health and recovery from addiction, where I introduce the tools of yoga and meditation to support those who are on their path to healing.
With decades of experience in the health and wellness field, I understand that every body is different, everyone has a story, and anybody has the potential to adapt and create change.

WORKING WITH LIZABOUT THE STUDIOWhen working with me in my private studio, you will find yourself in a compassionate, accepting, and positive environment. We will create a personalized plan together. You are the team leader, because you know yourself best. If your doctor, chiropractor or PT has suggested you come to yoga, I can work with your wellness team to learn more about your medical history so that we keep you safe and healthy. Of course, everything we discuss is confidential. Your health and safety are my primary focus.
