Qi-Spin, yoga, & Qi-spin-yoga have helped me find a wonderful way to take care of myself and cross train for the other outdoor activities I love so much. Not to mention the fact that they have helped me find many of the wonderful people with whom I am friends.

I want to teach because I love helping others, I love sharing the fun knowledge I have, and I love learning from those that I teach.

The light bulbs. Seeing the light bulbs go on in individuals minds as they learn something new, and discover how their mind and bodies are evolving.

More Information

I have been working with people and kids in some sort of teaching/instructing/coaching role since I was 15 when I started as an apprentice ski school instructor. From then on I have taught skiing, French, English, and coached ski racing. To date, I am still coaching ski racing and am now instructing spin-yoga.
