Evolving as a yoga student and teacher involves curiosity, somatic exploration and the desire for continuous learning, self-discovery and growth both on and off the mat.

  When I first stepped onto the mat under Terry Cockburn's guidance, I couldn't have predicted the transformation that awaited me and how profoundly her knowledge and teaching would influence my own personal practice and teaching style. 

  Together we unravel the journey of yoga beyond just postures, sharing insights into its impact on personal growth.
Terry and I  discuss: 

• the difference between functional alignment (adapting poses to suit each individual body) vs. aesthetic alignment (visually perfect pose),
• the essence of a nurturing yoga practice,  
• creating an embodied practice - developing a deep awareness and a connection to the body,  the hurdles we’ve had to overcome as teachers, especially during the pandemic, and importance of keeping an open line of communication with students and guiding them toward health and progression in their yoga practice.  
• a shared love of Qigong and how incorporating it into your practice supports a healthy cultivation of energy.

 Through our shared experiences, we aim to inspire and support you in creating a daily practice, enriched by education and community.

Terry's journey from learning yoga to becoming a teacher, trainer, studio owner and a creative energy behind the River Bird Sangha and school, reminds us of the power yoga has that shapes, not only our bodies, but our life’s direction. For thirty years, she has worked in the fitness and yoga industry as a trainer to individuals, teams and yoga schools and owned a vibrant community-based yoga studio, before pivoting to teaching online full-time with her  and partner Josh Summers.

Welcome to my podcast! I am a Yoga, Qigong, Reiki Master Teacher, Energy Alchemist and mom of identical twins! Like many of you Spiritual Warriors, I have faced challenges (breast cancer, toxic relationships, depression) that have influenced me to become more aware of the power of self-care, self-compassion and a positive mindset. I understand how vulnerable, alone and lost one can be when navigating these challenges. That is why I’m passionate about sharing this information with you. I want you to feel supported and have the tools and techniques available so you are better prepared to navigate what life places on your path.
