Heather's introduction to yoga was as a child making fun of her mother twisting her body into funny looking positions. It wasn't until years later in her college modern dance and improvisation classes that Heather came to know and experience the amazing and subtle benefits of the breath and those funny looking positions called yoga. It's now her mother who lovingly makes fun of her. Heather's interest in the therapeutic approach of yoga grew out of a desire to help her students experiencing health challenges get the most benefit out of their practice (she's a firm believer in the statement "If you can breathe, you can do yoga!") as well as developing a deeper understanding of how the mind/body practices of yoga could facilitate healing and personal transformation. At the heart of her teaching is the belief that it is everyone's birthright to be healthy, happy and whole. Her classes are filled with a sense of creativity and mindfulness encouraging the individual to find their way back home to a place balance and well-being.
