About Heather
Hi, I’m Heather! I am a Certified Kripalu Yoga Teacher, a Certified Rubenfeld Synergist, and a Distinguished Toastmaster.
My wellness journey started when life events led me to seek help. I was a parent of three young boys, and became a single mom. I discovered that movement activities, whether in the form of yoga, dance, running, or martial arts, brought me peace and joy in life.
I have been teaching fitness, and movement classes for 40+ years, and I have been a yoga teacher for 23+ years. I became a Toastmaster in 2009, then achieved a Distinguished Toastmaster designation in 2015. I love to speak about all things wellness in the community.
As the years have gone by, physical injuries, arthritis, and chronic pain have forced me to explore new ways to keep active. I discovered that many others face similar challenges day-to-day and it is hard to find classes that are adapted for individual needs and allow us to have joy in movement. I curate online programs for those who need daily movement, whether it be from the space of a chair, floor, or standing up.
I am also bringing back sessions in The Rubenfeld Synergy Method whether online, or in person to offer personalized 1:1 support for your body, mind, emotions, and spirit.
