About Courtney

Philosophy

My philosophy on all things Yoga/Ayurveda/Health/Wellness continues to evolve! I first “found myself” through yoga, which gave me an undying thirst to study and practice all of the things. I truly respect and honor the Ancient Wisdom and Teachings passed down from thousands of years ago, and I appreciate studying with those teachers who understand Sanskrit and ultimately the deeper meanings, philosophies, and history of these teachings. I teach and share what I know and believe to be true from further and deeper research and study, and do my utmost best to not cause harm to anyone. I also do my best to create a supportive space or container for these teachings/practices/experiences while sharing honestly my experiences from the past - how they’ve helped me, in addition to what has not been helpful. I’m here to be an open and honest teacher and student, and I continue to learn and evolve everyday.
