my STORY
Why Wild Sage?
Why Wild Sage?
I am a freelance writer-editor and certified yoga teacher based in Sonoma County, CA. I facilitate yoga classes, 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 certified yoga teacher based in Sonoma County, CA. I facilitate yoga classes, 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 20 years ago, gradually yielded into a daily devotion and naturally evolved into dedicated studentship and teaching. I was trained and certified in Shri Yoga, a synthesis of Hatha traditions rooted in the eight limbs of yoga and including principles of Anusara (consciousness) and Viniyoga (adaptation).
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.

sage

noun: a medicinal + culinary herb; a wise person
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
Why Wild Sage?
PHILOSOPHY
I strive to learn and integrate yoga philosophy into my life and teaching on the daily, and believe I am only as good a teacher as I am a student.
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
I strive to learn and integrate yoga philosophy into my life and teaching on the daily, and believe I am only as good a teacher as I am a student.
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, CONNECTION.
Yoga is not only good exercise and personal medicine, it is an expression of how we each live our lives—providing us with
challenges, choices, insights, and rewards both on and off the mat.
