Patty views yoga as a skillful and artful exploration, which enables one to move within their bodies into a peaceful inner environment.

Her classes are artfully sequenced to facilitate openings in the body, resulting in an uplifting empowering experience. She is a precise, thoughtful and challenging instructor yet creative and playful.

Patty’s personal yoga practice began in Anusara Yoga, a method that utilizes alignment principles and incorporates a heart-based theme woven throughout the class. She has been teaching yoga since 2002. She is honored to have studied with all of her past Anusara teachers, and is currently studying with Desiree Rumbaugh and Christina Sells. She also has deep gratitude to Rod Stryker from Para Yoga, and Rajanaka philosopher Douglas Brooks.

In addition to teaching yoga, Patty has had a prolific career as an Architect and Interior Designer. It is her intention now to immerse herself in her yogic path of teaching and studying, and to spend more personal time with family, friends and her dogs, while pursuing more time with other creative outlets.
