I learned about Indy Community Yoga in the Spring of 2022, shortly after I moved to Indianapolis. At that time I had been practicing meditation on my own for several years and was really excited to find that there was such an active community in Indianapolis. At the first practice session that I attended in Tarkington Park, I was moved by the sincerity, openness and approachability of those that were there. I loved that there was a regular in-person practice in my neighborhood. Since that first practice, I have found Indy Community Yoga to be a space where authenticity is encouraged and community care is central.

In addition to my meditation practice, I am also a full-time artist and mother of two teenagers. When not in my studio, I’m generally hanging out with my family or taking my dog Sandy out for a walk.
