My journey to The Kundalini Sanctuary

Welcome to my personal journey with Kundalini Yoga and dance. This practice has transformed my life, helping me cultivate a deeper love for myself and the world around me. I'm passionate about sharing this profound, medicinal practice with you, creating a space for healing, growth, and self-discovery at Thekundalinisanctuary.com.

Inspired by healing, guided by light

My path to teaching Kundalini Yoga and dance began with a profound personal transformation. This practice helped me fall more deeply in love with myself and with life, experiencing immense healing and clarity. This powerful, medicinal journey is one I am dedicated to sharing, believing in its ability to nurture the soul and uplift the spirit for those in Ithaca, New York, and beyond.

Healing for everyone

It's deeply important to me that these healing practices are accessible to all. By offering free and donation-based online classes, Thekundalinisanctuary.com creates a safe and inclusive space for anyone seeking healing and movement, regardless of their financial circumstances. I am committed to holding space for those who cannot afford it, as I believe it's important to heal the world, one practice at a time.

Cultivating clarity and compassion

When you join my online Kundalini classes, I hope you gain more than just physical movement. My intention is for you to experience increased clarity, deepen your self-awareness, and expand your compassion for yourself and others.
