my STORY
Why Wild Sage?
Why Wild Sage?
I am a freelance writer-editor and a certified yoga teacher based in Sonoma County, CA. I lead yoga classes and facilitate healing arts workshops and women’s circles based on belief in the transformative, healing, and empowering nature of embodied expression in all forms: writing, art, breath, movement, ritual, and meditation.

I am a freelance writer-editor and a certified yoga teacher based in Sonoma County, CA. I lead yoga classes and facilitate healing arts workshops and women’s circles based on belief in the transformative, healing, and empowering nature of embodied expression in all forms: writing, art, breath, movement, ritual, and meditation.
My background is in education—teaching literacy skills and expository + creative writing. Over the last 25 years, I have worked with students of all ages, levels, backgrounds, and abilities.
My longtime yoga practice, cultivated in the crucible of grad school and a sweaty Bikram studio, gradually yielded into a daily devotion and naturally evolved into teaching, which (in real life) includes movement and mindfulness lessons in local schools as well as studio and online classes.
I am by nature a collaborator and relationship builder. I write, practice, teach, volunteer, and facilitate workshops to energize, awaken, inspire, and co-create personal and communal
(rev)elation + (r)evolution.

We already have everything we need within ourselves. We are all raw potential. We all have natural wisdom. The true essence of yoga is to discover (root), cultivate (grow), and sustain (thrive) them both.
In addition to the obvious connotations of badassery and wisdom, Wild Sage is a combination of my kids’ names, Wilder + Sage. I dedicate my practice to them, as well as to the final leaf of our unruly branch, my hubby Chris.

PHILOSOPHY
I operate from an ever-growing understanding that yoga is a living, mutable practice, at once physical, soulful, and
unique to each individual.

I operate from an ever-growing understanding that yoga is a living, mutable practice, at once physical, soulful, and
unique to each individual.
Whatever the reason for coming to the mat, yoga is a great gift of self-wisdom available to every body and being.
Through breath, movement, and dedication, yoga works to calm the mind, engage the body, and cultivate an awareness which helps us to accomplish great feats of humanness:
FOCUS, STRENGTH, FLEXIBILITY, PEACE, HEALING, BALANCE, VIBRANCY.
Yoga is not only good self-care and exercise,
it is also a metaphorical expression for how we each live our lives—providing us with
challenges, choices, insights, and rewards both on and off the mat.
