About Me

Welcome to Freedom Journey Yoga & Retreats
Freedom Journey Yoga & Retreats

I have recently made my way from Colorado back to my childhood city of El Paso, Texas. I am embracing the warmth and sunshine, the culture and peacefulness. From my home, I lead Zoom Yoga classes for women in the middle years of life.

I have plans to begin day-long retreats out of my home, which is quite conducive. I also play with paint, fused glass and mosaic art mediums every chance I have.Previously, I taught yoga in Fort Collins, Colorado for 25 years. There, I taught classes for college students, high school teachers, county employees, seniors 50+ (up to 90!), and many folks of all ages from the community, including women-only classes.Before teaching yoga, I was a Certified Massage Therapist on Martha’s Vineyard, in Massachusetts, for 11 years. I began teaching yoga there as well, then became certified through The Yoga Institute, in Texas, before moving to Colorado and began teaching full time. I also have a B.A. from the University of Texas in Creative Writing. I have taken and taught writing workshops and will incorporate writing in some of my retreats. I moved to Colorado, partly, because of my love of hiking, and the Rocky Mountains called to me.Living near mountains and now in the desert, I miss the water. I am excited about leading retreats which are frequently seaside, or in otherwise fantastic places to explore.

I’ve been a student under a wonderful myriad of teachers including Baxter Bell, Nicki Doane, Gurmukh Khalsa, Sarah Powers, Sean Corne, Erich Schiffman, Judith Lassiter, John Friend, and the greatest teachers of all, my students and my two sons, Kyle and Grant. I teach intuitively, drawing from the energy of the class and the Divine in us all, for guidance. I like and provide variety and I love to have fun.
