My Sunday was full of mud, silks, hula hoops, and downward facing dog. Only at Wanderlust! Yesterday I got to attend Wanderlust 108, a pop-up Wanderlust festival here in Portland, OR. It’s a version of a triathlon, featuring running, yoga, and meditation. Though I taught at FFY in the morning and couldn’t attend the run, I…
A few weeks ago, I got real in class. We were in splits, which I’m NOT good at. Getting better, putting a lot of work into it, but I’m not uber flexible in that way. Hello, hamstrings! (Yeah, sorry about that one guys.) I generally have the same thing to say to my students when we’re hanging out…
Hey there, Portland yogis! I’m so excited to be gearing up to teach my second arm balance workshop at Flex & Flow this Sunday the 28th at 11am. It’s going to be 90 minutes of a little bit of flow, a lot bit of playing on hands, and a lot of sweating! It’s open to all levels! How…
Last week I celebrated my one year anniversary with Sweat Pink! I can’t even believe how quickly the year has gone by and how much amazingness we’ve packed into it! I’ve learned SO much and have loved every minute of my time with this amazing group of people. I’m constantly inspired and challenged by Jamie…

Our options: Rowena Crest (a 1.5 mile jaunt along the Oregon side of the Gorge) and Dog Mountain (um, let’s just say the opposite). Well, we chose the latter. Except for…
What does 10.5 hours of yoga in a weekend look like? Voilà! Friday: 4:30-5:30 Power Vinyasa with Justine We had so much fun getting hot and sweaty together in a flow led by our love Justine visiting from San Francisco. And then trying to coordinate a yoga picture with all of us proved … difficult….
It’s official! Spring has sprung in Portland! Flowers are blooming and I’ve skied 50-degree days to prove it… Though that last one was in Utah and Colorado. Don’t get me started on the fact that it dumped snow in all 4 ski areas I’ve been to this year after I left. (read: tone is bitter) …
I was inspired last night. I saw a video of my friend and student Christy Prior flowing between Sundial and Flying Splits, and looking gorgeous and effortless with it. I realized how long it had been since I’d given Sundial a go. I think it was even back in 2014 when we took the following picture…
ONE YEAR IN PORTLAND Last Saturday marked my one year anniversary of moving to Portland!
