About me
At one of my darkest moments, a couple of years ago yoga found me through a stranger I had picked up for a ride. At only 27 I had lived through what felt like three lifetimes of trials. These traumatic experiences left me doubting myself, everyone around me, and the entire world. One free session offered by this stranger was enough for me to get hooked to the feelings of bliss, peace, love, and strength. I experienced the transformative and healing power of yoga first-hand. Although I double majored in Art History and Political Science and worked in some famous museums, this life did not feel like my life. Becoming a yoga teacher was constantly in the back of my head. I fell in love with art because I love creativity.
Yoga, too, is an art where the body/mind is the canvas and the asanas are the strokes of a brush.
Things I Love
FAVORITE TRAVEL SPOT: any beach…🏝
CAN’T STOP BUYING: Books!!!
Before the pandemic in 2020, I traveled to Thailand to embark on an incredible Yoga Teacher Training program at Luna Alignment Yoga and then abruptly returned home due to the situation. Fortunately, this setback also led me into the wonderful Online Yoga School community brought into life by Steph Ball-Mitchell where I completed the 200-Hour Yoga Teacher Certification. Both programs taught me that yoga is not about putting your legs behind your head but the point of yoga is a journey of love that leads to finding your individual connection to your body, your higher self, other people, or the universe.
Andromeda Yoga Atelier – Your Virtual Self-Care & Yoga Community
Andromeda Yoga Atelier, AYA as I like to call it, started as a goofy pet project out of the passion for mental health and yoga which slowly snowballed into a real start-up venture. In a world that is fixated on always getting bigger, better, and faster AYA is a virtual yoga community that aims to be an antidote to our increasingly stressful lives. AYA is a space where your bodily sensations and life experiences become the best yoga teacher you have ever had… ALL IN THE COMFORT OF YOUR OWN HOME! The approach is based upon the idea that Yoga goes beyond the postures, the breath, and the physical exercise. Yoga is a state of mind and as the ancient Vedic text Bhagavad Gita perfectly frames it:
“Yoga is the journey of the self, through the self, to the self.”
Each and every yoga class or event is designed for you to:
1) become BIGGER by TAKING CARE of yourself first
2) become BETTER at LOVING YOURSELF and as such attract healthy relationships
3) become FASTER at RELAXING, SLOWING DOWN, and FEELING GOOD
