A little about me...

I'm a great teacher and practitioner. I started my journey studying massage therapy and although I didn't complete the program I ended with a degree in Political Science. That brought me to Asia for 6-years where I honed my teaching skills as a corporate ESL instructor is Central Tokyo. Having immersed myself in the far east I moved back to Canada and to Toronto to study to become a postural therapy teacher. While there I also began studying to be an Ayurvedic Health Practitioner.

Final Touches

We're just finishing the final touches on the studio here. I'm ready to take clients anytime.

I'm so excited to be back in Vancouver and really look forward to teaching people about the Mitzvah Exercise. I can't tell you what a difference regular practice of the Mitzvah has made in my life.

Building Community Through Better Posture

Free Workshops are being offered throughout November.

I've been delighted by everyone who's come to my workshops. Its just amazing the people that I've had the opportunity to meet and talk to.

I'm offering free workshop - take this opportunity to learn more about posture. Learn exercises designed to bring balance to your body, unlocking your pelvis to allow a natural rippling motion to travel up your spine and ultimately unlock your head so that it can balance freely.

to slowly blossom

The posture that we see in the mirror today took years to construct. When we first learned to crawl and stand our lower back muscles couldn't support us. We used our quadriceps as our main support. Watch the toddler standing, with their flat back.

Over the years our posture developed, changed. Through years of desk use and other furniture. Through the socialization of the mirror image and popular culture, we developed ourselves. We developed the way that we customarily use our body. Most often in our modern culture, the way that we are using our body is not optimal, and can be both painful and potentially damaging.

To get to a place where your body is being used most efficiently, where your pelvis is free and your head balances on top of the spine; you must unfold slowly.

The Mitzvah Technique is so simple. Sometimes too simple. It is a rippling motion. An exercise to teach your body a rippling motion. But where this can take you is anything but simple. When the body is free, when the blood can circulate more freely, healing can take place.

Throughout November free workshops are being offered in the Annex, near Dupont Station. Toronto, Ontario, Canada.

December 1st we leave Toronto, driving to Vancouver.
