BACKGROUND
Amy is an ultimate wholeness and health yoga expert in private practice in Houston, TX. As a national and  international yoga presenter and expert yoga trainer, she has over 20 years training and experience in yoga, energetics, anatomy, cutting edge and scientific based nutrition, and eastern and western philosophy. Her pursuit of knowledge about the human body and human performance has led her to study different yoga styles, fitness programs and healing techniques. Through her studies of human anatomy and physiology, she has developed an esoteric understanding of muscular symmetry and energetic flows.  She carefully designs strategies to adapt poses for any student from a safe, intelligent and well-laid foundation.

Through creativity, imagination and inspiration, she teaches to honor the wisdom of the body, transform its limits and enhance its strengths.
