Health and fitness has been a goal and passion of mine for many years. After staying at home with my two children untill school age, I had then decided to pursue a career in Nutrition. I have spent the past four years acquiring high honors in Natural Health Fundamentals, Nutrition: Studies and applications, Vegetarian Nutrition, Sports and Fitness Nutrition, Anatomy and Physiology, Nutritional Sciences, and Nutritional Counseling. By doing so these courses enabled me to receive 3 diplomas in Advanced Nutrition Specializing in Sports Fitness, Nutritional Consulting, and Advanced Nutrition. Which then led to my Natural Nutrition Clinical Practitioner designation. These skills are used to asses and counsel people as individuals in both fitness and nutrition to achieve their goals of a new lifestyle filled with vitality in a safe and effective manor. In my Anatomy and Physiology courses I had the opportunity to study Anatomy and Physiology for Yoga and was able to apply it to my 13 years of practice. I have trained with teachers who traveled India and focused on the fundamentals of traditional Yoga. My teaching is more traditional keeping focus on the basics and working towards a strong foundation to help move through each level that yoga offers. Every type of yoga offers many health benefits for the body and mind. Some yoga styles Vinyasa ( flow), Ashtanga ( power), Iyengar (alignment) are used in the practice. The versatility that yoga provides makes it possible for anyone of any age or fitness level to participate and enjoy the many advantages yoga provides. Through a healthy lifestyle consisting of a balance between nutrition and fitness. Be well
