ABOUT
Guiding you to practice and go deeper with compassion and intuition.
Hi, I’m Frances, and I’ve spent a lifetime exploring yoga, art, and intuitive techniques to learn how to heal and thrive. Because of this I can guide you to learn and practice these tools to move through your life with more ease and steadiness. I go beyond how to strengthen and stretch the body, and teach practical methods to connect deeply to a place you know is inside you, a place of stillness, of home- the source of your creativity. My work is my vocation. I earned two yoga teaching certificates as well as special qualifications for teaching those with arthritis, seniors and children.
