About Terri

Terri is a 200-hour certified yoga teacher, who trained under the guidance of renowned Austin teacher Erinn Lewis of Sukha Yoga. She has practiced since 2007 and comes from an Ashtanga lineage, which is vigorous and structured. Her classes meld the rigor of Ashtanga with a gentler flowing style that has intelligent sequencing and an emphasis on breath and moving meditation. Her students will feel both physically challenged and mentally clear.

Prior to teaching, she worked in the corporate world for 12 years as an account planner in advertising – an industry known for long hours, tight deadlines and frequent business travel. Her background in advertising as the consumer insights expert has made her keenly aware of students’ needs, and she approaches each class as a unique opportunity to deliver what will benefit them most in that moment. Terri is also a mother of two and recognizes the challenges of juggling working and parenthood. These experiences strongly influence the classes she creates for her students.

Private Yoga Instruction

Terri offers private yoga instruction in the comfort of your home with a minimum of 4 sessions for those looking for more individualized guidance. She is also available for group instruction for your private event.

Private instruction is perfect for prenatal and postnatal students, busy professionals, beginners, and those who want to build up their confidence before attending public classes. One-on-one sessions are also great for those wanting to work on specific aspects of the practice – be it meditation, pranayama, bhandas, yoga philosophy – and going deeper than what time allows in a public class.

On-Site Corporate Yoga

Corporate culture has become mentally and physically overwhelming on employees. Long hours, frequent travel and heavy computer work leave teams drained of energy and mental capacity. Without a way to relieve daily stress, productivity tanks and tensions run high.

Bringing yoga on-site offers employees an opportunity to regulate their nervous systems so they can return to their desks, mentally refreshed to do great work. They learn to reconnect with their priorities, to breathe, slow down, and get focused. Employees in the corporate world need this pause more than ever when their work does not end at 5 pm.

Benefits include:

Creative awakening
Relationship-building
Stress reduction
Client-facing zen & confidence
Focus & grounding
Relief from sedentary aches & pains
