A student of yoga for 25 years, Amy first came to yoga for the physical benefits of the practice, but soon realized its deeper wisdom and potential to heal the whole self – body, mind and spirit. She became a certified yoga teacher in 2010, and has continued to deepen her practice and understanding of this ancient healing art while empowering others to take charge of their own health and well-being.

Amy offers private and group classes as well as yoga hikes, retreats, and workshops on yoga, meditation and Ayurveda. Inspired by a love of water and the expansive beaches of Lake Michigan, she founded a donation-based Yoga on the Beach program in the summer of 2010, which has raised thousands of dollars for conservation, public health and social justice causes. 

By encouraging students to connect with nature and the present moment, Amy’s unique style of yoga combines mindful movements, held poses, and breath awareness – as well as a sense of community connection and fun! She offers a variety of options to meet each student where they’re at, inspiring them to tap into their own inner wisdom and capacity for healing. 

Amy invites you to unwind and reconnect with yourself and nature at this tropical retreat!
