Get out of your head
and into your heart.
Hi my name is River, I hold heart-lead spaces to help guide you back into connection with yourself and find joy in moving your body.
I am here to support you in embracing your unique expression and experiencing the full spectrum of what it means to be alive. My classes and retreats are designed to guide you to your edge, helping you cultivate confidence, resilience, and joy while unlocking new possibilities within yourself. Whether it’s finding strength, balance, or stillness, I aim for you to leave each practice feeling empowered, inspired, and a step closer to achieving what once felt impossible.
​
My teaching blends dynamic flow, embodied strength, and meditative stillness. Rooted in curiosity and play, my classes invite you to connect with your body in ways that feel authentic and joyful. Each session is an opportunity to cultivate adaptability and courage, drawing connections between fluidity on the mat and freedom in life.
​
I take a non-dogmatic approach, drawing from a diverse range of influences including Hatha Yoga, Somatics, Chinese Medicine (TCM), Ashtanga, Embodied Yin, contemporary dance, gymnastics, Barre and mixed movement.
A foundation in gymnastics sparked an early love of physical exploration as a kid, further refined through professional training as a dancer. My yoga path began with traditional Hatha training in Bali, complemented by 100's of hours of further advanced study. These experiences continue to shape my fully embodied approach to life and teaching, where vitality, play, and connection are at the heart of everything I do.
​
My retreats, workshops, and classes are thoughtfully curated spaces of nourishment, transformation, and connection. They are welcoming to all levels and offer personalized guidance in a supportive, nurturing environment. Whether you love exploring arm balances or finding a sense of inner peace, each experience invites participants to show up just as they are.
