I love connecting with people, and I find endless fascination in the various perspectives that people develop through so many cultural, social, and environmental conditions. I'm open minded, but I also know what I value.

I am a yoga teacher, and am entirely committed to expanding and developing on this path! My training was very unconventional and intensive. I did Warrior training with my teacher Donny Day. This was a 200 hr yoga teacher training, which was amalgamated with kung fu, shamanism, and deep psychospiritual cleansing. Our main focus was on hatha spinal alignment yoga, a generative and restorative practice. The transformation through this process was palpable!

I then went on to takeYoga Teacher training at the House of Yoga! This was a month live-in intensive, which included Thai Yoga Massage training, intensive asana practice, gym training, and high intensity interval training. Beyond training, we all ate together, lived together, and became a part of our teachers personal life. We would go to ecstatic dance, float tanks, engage in tradition Brazilian medicine ceremonies, Samba dancing, and more. We absolutely embraced life to the fullest on all fronts!!

I am also one half of a musical project called Goddess Breath. I've been writing and recording hiphop music for 7 years, and currently work with my soul fam Jeremy Legault whom I met through Warrior Training. He is a stunningly talented multi-instrumentalist and producer, and we're currently working on our first full length LP. The core intention of our project is rekindling the balance between masculine and the feminine, both within and without. Specifically we are relearning how to honour the feminine, which has been so greatly harmed by much of humanity's narrow-minded selfishness. If I could put it to one sentence: we're learning to love ourselves.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I signed up because I'll be travelling over the next 3 months, and I'd love to connect with like-minded locals along the way.

When I am settled again I plan to be a host, but for now I'm unable.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

After a life-changing transformative festival experience, went on a spiritual pilgrimage with my partner at the time. We hitchhiked across Canada, lived at a Rainbow Gathering in Quebec, worked at an organic vegan farm in BC, connected to the beautiful conscious community of Victoria. I found so much healing in connecting with this magnificent country. It was an absolutely defining year of my life.
