“A Birthday is another 365 day trip around the sun, enjoy the ride!”
In our family, this is birthday season. Every year around this time, I like to look back at the last year and see if I have met my goals that I set out for myself on August 31st last year. I know that January 1st is usually when goals and resolutions are set, for me I like to set them on my birthday, as a reminder that each trip around the sun is another opportunity to share what I love to do. I love to be of service and help people to experience the joy of movement. There is a special place in my heart for Moms and babies, and bringing the gifts yoga and fitness to my community makes my heart smile. Here are some of the recent highlights from this last trip around the sun. |

NEW MAGAZINE COVER |
|
Thanks OM Yoga magazine for giving me the opportunity to work with one of my besties, the super talented photographer Natiya Guin, on this shoot. Last year I created a vision board with the words “Yoga for Pregnancy, kindness, and grounding,” on it- and what a lovely surprise to see them all there on the cover! Also, special thanks to Manduka for the beautiful apparel.

LATINAFEST! |
|
Soy Mexicana! I was born in Chicago and my father was Mexican. I am proud of my Mexican heritage and was excited to be invited to lead a Yoga class at Plaza de la Cultura y Artes in downtown LA with the hosts of The Trend Talk Show Naibe Reynoso and Bel Hernandez. What a joy to share Yoga with these beautiful, empowered Latinas! I have more special events coming up this year. Look for my social media handles on this message to stay connected and attend an event or a class.
