She is passionate about assisting students in finding an optimum level of physical and mental health, both on and off the mat. After struggling with anxiety and depression for years, Courtney found respite in the mindfulness practices of teacher Thich Nhat Hahn, which secondarily led her to yoga. Her Gentle Flow class is laced with both a strong emphasis on the power of the present moment, as well as knowledge pertaining to the anatomy of the human body. As a marathon runner and a nurse with a background in orthopedic trauma and sports medicine, Courtney hopes to provide and safe and knowledgeable environment for students to learn more about their bodies as they link movement with breath on the mat.
