I hail from Guyana, in the Caribbean, where I learned to value nature and develop a deep connection and love for the outdoors. I am a very motivated person, and I strive to live a healthier life by eating well and exercising regularly. I was introduced to yoga by Kristina. I took her class and instantly fell in love with the practice, which allowed me to explore new ways of mental and physical well-being. I started to practice regularly in group classes and on my own. Yoga makes me feel centered and focused. I live a more productive and balanced lifestyle with a greater work ethic. As a result, when an exciting opportunity opened to work with Kristina, I was delighted and eager to become a part of her team, invest in and expand my knowledge on wellness and live the lifestyle of a yogi.

I found yoga by going to a pranayama class in the hopes of healing my chronic asthma from birth. With the techniques I learned, I was able to use these tools to eventually shift my central nervous system to a place that no longer felt trapped, caged or stuck, but rather, a new found place of ease, freedom and harmony. The more I started showing up for myself from a place of authenticity, the more I healed. Not only was I breathing consciously, but I started living consciously. Yoga showed me a way to take all my broken pieces and make them beautiful. Teaching since 2011, my goal is to give you the tools you need so that you too, can heal yourself. I use the physical body as a medium to the only thing that this practice is invested in; the ability and the art of letting go. My trainings include: 200hrs Core Power Yoga (Sarah Goble), 500hrs The Kaivalya Yoga Method (Alanna Kaivalya), 25hrs Yoga Medicine (Tiffany Cruikshank), 25hrs Core Strength Vinyasa (Sadie Nardini). My meditation trainings include The Power of Awareness (Tara Brach & Jack Kornfield) as well as being a dedicated Vipassana meditator in the lineage of S.N. Goenka.

I am a NYC based yoga instructor, professional trainer, co-creator and founder of SPRYoga*. My mission is to help people live healthier, more authentic, happier lives. My love affair with the capabilities of the body began at age five in her first ballet class. I dedicated the next twenty years of my life to pursuing ballet and modern dance which brought her to New York City at age eighteen. In NY I received a 200 hour RYT and Certified Personal Trainer. Currently I teach private and group classes in New York and lead retreats world wide.

Yoga is a part of every aspect of my everyday life. I have been practicing and teaching it for 16 years. Yoga allows me to connect to my own true self, feel centered, be a better person and understand my own body. I mostly teach at the Equinox Fitness clubs in Manhattan. I present my own unique blend of vinyasa yoga to my students allowing them to get the most out of this ancient knowledge. My classes are great for all levels and are characterized as a gradual spiraling of various asana pieces that culminate in one or more poses specifically targeted towards invigorating, healing and balancing energies in the body and mind to feel purified and toned.

Reiki has been part of my family for many years. My mom and my aunt introduced it to me when I was a teenager. If I was sick, had lack of energy or was just stressed, my mom would lay her hands on my body and let the pure energy of Reiki to heal me. I was amazed by the powerful and yet gentle and purifying Reiki energy. I got motivated to learn how to channel it to myself and others. In 2011 I went through a training and got my certification as a Reiki master. 

The healing benefits of Reiki include, but not limited to: reducing stress, strengthening the immune system, easing pain and physical discomfort, balancing and harmonizing emotions, enhancing mental clarity and creativity, facilitating personal and spiritual growth. Thank you for reading my short Bio. I cannot wait to meet you in person at one of my healing sessions.  

 was introduced to massage therapy early on in life. As a child, I was raised in a spiritual community in India. The community engaged in regular group meditation and therapy of different kinds, as well as individual therapeutic encounters, including psychotherapy, body work, etc. There was no formal education, so my early childhood was very unstructured and organic. I have fond memories of these early years , which helped inform my own spiritual journey.

I worked mostly in the service and landscape gardening industries and was often suffering from low back, shoulder and neck pain, not to mention the normal aches and pains. I sought out massage to ease my muscle pain and found it to be supportive of proper movement and balance. Before long, I began to search out a massage school that would impart the skills and knowledge I felt would be necessary to educate others in order to effect the change their bodies needed. 

I enrolled in a well-regarded school in San Diego, CA, which offered a program that would award me a massage license and a Holistic Health Practitioner certificate. I began practicing with over double the requirements and studies of the industry standard, including over 200 hours of anatomy and physiology, as well as practical knowledge of neuromuscular therapy, structural integration (or “rolfing”) myofascial release, the Trager method, craniosacral therapy and Shiatsu style Tui Na, an acupressure point and energy Meridian-based treatment.

I believe that we are more than our bodies and it is easiest to access the interface to affect change. We often train our bodies to hold imbalanced postures, which, in turn, affect our movement patterns. The result is restricted joint mobility, muscular strain and, ultimately, pain. My hope is to reverse these patterns in order to reduce these unwanted symptoms we all experience to some degree. When our bodies are pain-free and can move without restriction, it affects our whole being.
