I had a suitable name for my business. It seemed to fit- Sun & Moon Yoga, RI. I used it for many years. Something was missing though.

I wanted a new name.

Something different, something that would represent what I believe is the essence of true yoga. I asked my friends, family even people I didn’t know for any ideas. As if they could tell me. They would all ask me, what is it I want to teach, what do I want students to take away from my classes, workshops & retreats? What is at the essence of my teaching, my experience my life?

And so I sat with it and listened to my…

Yes, that’s it! I kept getting the same answer:

Heart.

It was at my hairdresser of all places that it came to me. Something short, easy to remember that resonates with my soul.

The Heartful Yogi Was Born.

I have always believed that no matter what we do we bring our heart with us or we do not succeed, do not meet our highest potential. Even in the most academic, scientific, concrete places, it is our heart, our heartbeat that makes us who we are.

It is my intention to help people deeply connect with their heart; manifest the Love and Light that lives there into everything they do on the mat and off. I teach yoga that invites your heart to come alive, to manifest itself through your body as you practice. You see all of us are in truth heartful yogis.
