5 things you may not know about me...
1. I was born and raised in Louisville, KY.
2. I am a big risk taker. For example, I move to NYC without ever visiting the city. Go big or go home right?
3. I am a yoga instructor, dance instructor, and a personal trainer.
4. I totally believe in horoscopes, astrology signs, and ghosts.
5. I secretly want to be a singer/songwriter. I plan on taking banjo lessons in the fall!
My class is unique because...
I incorporate my dance and yoga background. My years as a dancer taught me how to approach every dance class with a great level of discipline, intelligence, and passion. I now approach every spin class with those three things in mind. My yoga philosophy knowledge helps me to create a positive environment in my class. I practice yoga because it is a never ending journey to the "higher self." It teaches me to have a positive outlook on life, under any circumstance. I try to share this positive paradigm with everyone who takes my class.
My favorite artists are...
Wes Anderson and Salvador Dali.
If I have an hour to myself I am...
probably in a grocery store brainstorming about my next food creation! I LOVE to cook but rarely do because of time and lack of kitchen space. I also carry a journal with me at all times so that when I see a yummy recipe in the newspaper or a magazine, I can write it down and save it for a future cooking day.
My roommates are very important to me.
They are my New York family, my "home away from home." I live with four amazing individuals. We come from all parts of the world and have very different interests. We support each other in everything that we do and living in New York would not be the same without them.
My friends know me as...
The chill one.
