Welcome to our yoga sanctuary, where the transformative power of breath meets the serenity of movement. Our journey into yoga began amidst the rhythmic waves of a freediving certification program, where breathwork and gentle motion became my daily ritual. The tranquility beneath the water's surface inspired my quest to infuse yoga sessions with that same sense of calm.
At Yoga Tree, we embrace the ancient wisdom of yogis and the modern understanding of breathwork's profound impact on life. Having experienced the quiet depths below the water, I am dedicated to creating a peaceful haven within each yoga class. Specializing in breathing techniques, Yoga Tree offers classes that seamlessly integrate pranayama into various styles and flows.

Trauma Sensitive Yoga + Yoga for Addiction and Recovery
Trauma Sensitive Yoga + Yoga for Addiction and Recovery
Welcome to a transformative journey of self-discovery and healing. In acknowledging the challenges we all face with various addictions, we recognize that anything exerting control over our choices may manifest as addictive behavior. Without passing judgment, our focus lies in fostering awareness to see beyond illusions and enhance overall well-being.
Embracing the philosophy that yoga is a gentle and beautiful means of shifting intense drives and passions towards serving one's highest good, we embark on a path of self-empowerment. As practitioners of yoga, we turn inward, tapping into inner wisdom to regain control over aspects we may have relinquished or lost touch with.
With over 7 years of experience working with addiction and recovery clients, our journey extends to 15 years of aiding diverse groups, including adults battling substance abuse and children/teens recovering from trauma. Additionally, we support individuals who may feel "different" from their peers.
Yoga becomes the conduit for accessing the inner realms of our being, whether through introspective meditation or the release of old wounds—be they physical, emotional, mental, or spiritual. Through consistent and dedicated practice, we rediscover a home within ourselves—a place filled with light that many may barely remember but that holds the key to our unique gifts. Join us in this wonderful healing system, and let's come home together.

Trauma Sensitive Yoga + Yoga for Addiction and Recovery
Discover the transformative power of healthy, healing touch at our sanctuary for well-being. With a passion ignited in the vibrant city of San Diego, California, and nurtured through enlightening workshops across the USA and New Zealand, our journey embraces the profound healing modality of bodywork.
Informed by a background in nutrition and inspired by a chiropractor professor, I found my path in massage therapy—a revelation that challenged my initial reservations about touch. Today, I advocate that healthy, healing touch is not a luxury but a necessity for overall wellness.
At the heart of our philosophy is the belief that everyone can live a richer life through movement and connection to the body's wisdom. As a guide and healer, I share this knowledge with clients, empowering them to become their own healers. Each client receives personalized care, as I assess and tailor massage sessions to meet their unique needs in the present moment.
Our approach to massage is eclectic, drawing from acupressure, soft and deep tissue techniques, energy work, breathwork, and relaxation methods. We strive to assist the body's systems in effectively supporting overall well-being. Join us on a journey to holistic wellness, where healthy touch is not just a luxury—it's a necessity for a balanced and vibrant life.
