Studied Ashtanga Yoga at Chicago Yoga with Suddha Wexler

The first Yoga class I taught was at Deerfield High School, Continuing Education when my Yoga teacher asked me to take her class because of health issues. That was over thirteen years ago; classes have grown to include Gentle, Beginning and Continuing levels. I taught for several years at the Himalayan Institute in Glenview. Currently I teach at a number of locations in the Chicago suburbs and also in my home.

I became fascinated with Yoga back in the 60’s when Lillias Folan taught Yoga on Channel 11. I enjoyed her soft and gentle approach to yoga along with the challenge of the asanas.

Over time I knew yoga had found a place in my life and in my heart. One important way in which Yoga has changed my life is being able to share the many benefits of Yoga with my students. Many of my students have become personal friends and I’m grateful they are in my life.

Yoga has enriched my life by creating a balance and focus and by providing me with a vocation I truly love .
