Training & Certifications
My studies in traditional bodywork, yoga and complementary practices have consistently been guided by a desire to transmit knowledge. Wherever possible, I sought training that prepared me to teach others, fostering a chain of learning through which techniques and traditions could travel across communities and cultures.
