customized 1:1 therapeutic Yoga & Movement Sessions
Hi, I’m Heather
I am a highly experienced, trauma-informed yoga teacher and movement specialist with a penchant for sharing the therapeutic aspects of a yoga practice.
With a firm belief that ‘life is practice, and practice is life’, I have a passion for learning and sharing healing modalities that can be incorporated into the practice of daily living to support us in our journey back to balance and harmony.

Shifting the momentum of our habituated routines can be a catalyst for creating long-lasting transformative change. When we gather together in community we co-create an intentional space in which we can recover our balance and vitality amidst profound learning and mutual growth. So let’s gather!
My Approach
I weave breath work, somatics, modern movement science, and stress management techniques throughout group and private yoga sessions, workshops, trainings, and retreats to ensure that those I am working with gain experiential insight into the various tools that can be used to stabilize, nourish, and rebalance. It is my deepest intention to support you to empower yourself to cultivate transformative change first within your own internal landscape and then out into the world.

“Heather has incredible knowledge of many different types of yoga practice. But what truly makes her special is her emotional awareness and sensitivity to the needs of the people in her class and community. She is my favorite yoga instructor.”
- B. Bowser, Portland Oregon
“Heather's knowledge and insight of anatomy (in addition to the requests of the students attending studies) allows her to focus on different parts of the body and in turn create classes that employ a variety of movements that focus on these specific body parts. All of this helps my mind and body stay stimulated and flexible.”
- M. Kubetz, Portland Oregon
