Beyond the Mat Yoga Collective 

In March 2005, I experienced a life-altering event—an attempted kidnapping at gunpoint. It was a devastating and traumatic moment that shook me to my core. This left me feeling vulnerable, fearful, and disconnected from myself. For many years, I struggled to regain my sense of security and confidence. Gradually, through yoga, I found my path to healing. Practice became more than just physical movement; it became my sanctuary space where I could reconnect with my breath, release fear, and rebuild my inner strength. Through breathwork, meditation, and mindful movement, I learned to quiet my mind, regain control of my emotions, and step back into my power. Yoga taught me resilience, self-trust, and the ability to find peace within, no matter what the circumstances are. This journey has inspired me to share the wisdom of yoga with others. I strive to help people experience yoga's profound benefits.
