E-RYT 500 Healing Arts Practitioner

Joy began her Yoga journey of self-discovery 18 years ago. After a diagnosis of Spinal Stenosis (stiffening of the spine), Disk Herniations, Osteoporosis and chronic pain in her mid-20′s, coupled with a history of depression & Panic Attacks she was intuitively guided to the practice of Yoga and Meditation. Through the new-space and freedom in her breath, body and mind, she was inspired to share her passion with others through teaching.

She devoted her studies into Yoga and Metaphysics where she realized the shamanic process of connecting with others from her heart and soul. For the last 8 years Joy has been sharing Yoga with Group Classes, Specialized Workshops, Yoga Nidra Meditation and Yoga Alliance Teacher Trainings. Joy has created a community where Yoga is a significant part of individuals daily lives.

Her eclectic style of teaching is strong, soulful and inspiring. She is the founder and creator of Om Joyful Yoga where her vision to reach the masses through the healing power of Love and Yoga has created a positive impact in peoples lives. This in turn creates a healing effect in their relationships with others and in the world. Pay it forward to be the change you wish to see in the world.
