Her passion for both training and yoga are rooted in a love of movement and the power of nurturing the mind-body connection to more fully realize our human experience.

She approaches all instruction with a creative spirit. Rachel’s relationship with movement and physical practices has always been at the root of her identity and yoga became the vehicle she was seeking to balance and bind her experiences together with a spiritual grounding. She has found in yoga the peace she now seeks to create for others and hopes to share with her students the beautiful reward of balancing effort with acceptance, and fire with surrender, while maintaining a rigorous alignment focused practice.
