Hello

I’m so glad you’re here.

I’m thrilled that you are interested in learning more about me and my classes. I teach yoga and meditation for all levels, body types, ages, and abilities.

If you’re wanting to develop a yoga practice, or just shake off the day and find some balance, I offer:

Zoom/Morning Dharma class on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 6:30am – 7:30am
In-Person/Evening Dharma class on Thursdays at Rose Hill Farm in Kearneysville from 6pm-7pm
Retreats throughout the year
Private Instruction by request

My classes are rooted in traditional Hatha yoga (a gentle style), combining pranayama (breathing), asana (yoga poses), and meditation. I also integrate vinyasa flow, which connects the poses at a slightly faster, flow-y pace, along with yogic and Buddhist philosophies, and a deep reverence for the natural world.

I believe that yoga is a lifelong practice — one that ebbs, flows, changes, and evolves. To make it accessible to all body types, ages, and abilities, I always offer modifications tailored to individual needs. I hope you’ll join me!

A little bit about me…

I believe that yoga, meditation, and connecting with nature are the most reliable paths to a joyful life.

I’ve been a seeker for as long as I can remember. Around age 12, I read Siddhartha* and began my own inward journey exploring philosophy, religion, meditation, nutrition, and movement. I was first drawn to yoga in 2001 as an alternative to modern dance after becoming pregnant with my son. I attended the first yoga studio in Shepherdstown, WV, and felt an immediate connection to the yogic philosophy, meditation, and asanas taught by Shanti Saagar founders Judy Jenner & JiJi Beckett. I’ve maintained a self-practice ever since, and began practicing with Christa Mastrangelo Joyce in 2010. In 2018, I completed Jala Yoga’s 200-hour Teacher Training Program and then began my own path as an instructor while continuing to be a student of yoga and Buddhist philosophy.

A native West Virginian, I currently live in WV’s eastern panhandle with my timber-framer husband Patrick and three chickens, all named Janet. I’m also the founder of Eden Design, a design & marketing firm, and am on the Board of the Eastern West Virginia Community Foundation. I love laughter, music, long hikes and trail runs, drinks with friends, and visits from our son, Sam. I am extremely grateful to all of the strong women & yogis in my life and humbled to share this yogic lineage with others.

“There is a crack, a crack in everything.
That’s how the light gets in.”

—Leonard Cohen

*In full disclosure, I found out about Siddhartha from a magazine article about my pre-teen crush River Phoenix who counted it as a major influence in his life. Sometimes, we find our guides in the most unusual places!

RETREATS

In September 2025, we hosted two trips on Portugal’s Algarve Coast: Lagos and Sagres and loved it so much we’re going back in 2026!
