BS in Exercise Physiology from William Paterson University. Internship at Northern Valley Sports Academy. 9 years of competitive field hockey training. Intramural co-ed street hockey and volleyball.

I love training highly motivated individuals, who have an open mind to different types of training. The tools that athletes use to get in shape are the same tools that the every day person can also use to lose weight, build muscle and achieve the body that they desire. Every workout will be fun, challenging and motivating.

My yoga classes integrate the diagnostic insights of my years as a healing professional. Breath and movement combine to improve the body's structure, bio-chemistry and natural homeostasis.

You will experience the liberating capacity to dissolve your current limits and discover expanded potential.
