My Story
”I moved to Shanghai in 2006 and began my yoga practice and yoga education. I began reading as much as I could on the subject, and teaching as well. As a trained academic teacher I realized I could leverage these skills I already possessed for teaching yoga as well. As a result I was able to develop advanced teaching methodology I could use in my yoga classes.
In 2014 I traveled to Rishikesh, India for intensive study of yogic philosophy and indian culture—much of which I’ve integrated into my own life and practice.
In 2015 I met Laruga Glaser, a world renowned Ashtanga Vinyasa teacher who I have been training with and following ever since. I also continue to practice and train with Margaret Chiu while in Shanghai. It is through the knowledge and wisdom of these great teachers that I’ve been able to establish such a strong personal practice over the years. I am eternally grateful for their help and support.”
