Move

with me

There are SO many ways to move our bodies. I believe the more varied our movement practices are, the more resilient and skilled we become. While it can be attractive to dedicate your time and energy to perfecting a single movement practice, it’s kinda like only eating one food group. Eventually, the holes in your movement practice show up as chronic pain, stiffness, poor movement patterns and lack or mobility and range of motion.

I teach classes, courses and workshops in a wide range of disciplines at various levels.

  • I offer various yoga asana classes throughout New England. My classes range from therapeutic and restorative to deeply challenging flow classes as well as teaching advanced poses, including inversions, advanced backbends and advanced balancing poses. I teach weekly public group classes at Yoga Studios throughout the Monadnock Region, you can register for these or just see my schedule here. I also offer private one on one Yoga Asana Classes, you can book your first session here!

  • In 2026, I began teaching Group Strength and Conditioning Classes. My newest public group class offering is called “Deep Conditioning” and is offered at various studios in Keene NH as well as workshops and courses at the SIG Experience Center in Epping, NH through the SIG Self Defense Training Center.

  • I am excited to roll out my newest program, where we explore, test and perfect basic movement skills needed to survive the real world. In this program, we cover the basics, but in depth. Running, Jumping, Climbing, Carrying, Dragging, Traversing, Swimming and more!! This is the real deal!! This program launches Spring of 2027. To learn more, or reserve your spot at the next retreat, check out my website www.functionalpatterns.com

  • I offer Burlesque Dance Classes in Keene NH. These classes are usually offered at the Everglow Wellness Studio space, but are a separate program run by Speakeasy Burlesque. In order to join Speakeasy Burlesque, there is an application process and in some cases may require auditions prior to enrolling. My burlesque classes are no longer open to the public. As unpopular as this may be, Speakeasy Burlesque is not an inclusive group. My classes are not accessible to all levels and require a minimum level of demonstrable physical fitness, coordination and cardiovascular health, for the health and safety of all dancers. I will also be offering belly dancing basics in the Fall of 2026! To learn more about Burlesque Classes, Workshops and Events, visit my website www.speakeasyburlesque.com. Please note, Speakeasy Burlesque Troupe practices and Performs from August to December only (when the days are shorter.

  • I have recently added Pilates to the movement practices I am teaching but I have only started working seriously with the pilates method. I am filling in for a pilates fusion class that incorporates many of the movements and sequences from the Classic Mat practice with other movements that align with the goal of overall goal of the pilates program. I do not teach any reformer classes and am not qualified to teach the pilates method or sequences beyond the other mat exercises that align with the pilates method. If you are looking a certified pilates teacher or to work with the reformer or other pilates equipment, I highly recommend Thrive Pilates in Keene, NH.

Movement is an expression of being alive!

The ways we move are ways to express ourselves, challenge ourselves, support ourselves, defend ourselves and ultimately, know ourselves. Know our limitations, understand our strengths, be aware of our edges and increase our tolerance mindfully.
