After stumbling upon yoga in 2008, Echo discovered yoga as a key to rejuvenation, vitality, and especially mental acuity. Hooked on yoga as her escape from days of fatigue and irritability, she never stopped practicing. After leisurely teaching yoga to tourists on a Goan beach in India, she knew she was ready to deepen her personal practice and take her passion to the next level. After returning to Toronto from her trip, she completed her 200-hour Registered Yoga Teacher Certification (RYT200).
Being a marketing professional, it is natural for her to share, encourage and distribute the transformative power of yoga through teaching. The focus of her class is on self-awareness by balancing and creating space in the body. This is done through the playful combination of breathing exercises and movements that strengthen the core. Her flowing style allows her students to explore sensation and strength by incorporating smooth and meaningful transitions between postures. All of her sequencing is designed to discover the inner edge by drawing on the breath with willfulness and mindfulness.
She believes in “work hard and play hard” and that yoga gives her the wisdom and energy to choose the right activities at the right time. In the fleeting of the moments, she finds her purpose, priority, productivity and potential. Even almost after a decade and 3000 hours of teaching, you will still hear her sharing that “yoga is one of the best things that has ever happened to my life” with the 300+ students she has had the pleasure to teach. Her yoga students can feel that she teaches with kindness and understanding as she creates classes where students can move and gain self-awareness in a non-judgmental, inclusive and non-competitive space.
