Sacred Breath Wellness
Breath, Massage, and Yoga
"The word breath implies more than the physical act of drawing air in and out of the lungs. Breath is the junction point between mind, body and spirit. Every change of mental state is reflected first in the breath and then in the body."

WA License #MA00019543
I am a Washington State licensed massage therapist (LMT) and am also licensed in Washington State as both a large and small animal massage practitioner (L/SAMP). I am a past Board Member for the National Board for Certification of Animal Acupressure and Massage. I received my Registered Yoga Teacher certification through the Yoga Alliance in 2013.
My Background
I graduated from Texas Tech University with a Bachelor of Science degree in Wildlife and Fisheries Management in 1998. I attended massage school at the Brian Utting School of Massage in Seattle, finishing in April of 2004. I continued my massage training in animal massage at the Northwest School of Animal Massage, completing both the large and small animal massage programs by early 2005. I started my yoga journey in 2000 and took my first teacher training in 2002, after which I assisted in weekly classes under the tutelage of several Certified Anusara Yoga Instructors. I completed my 200 hour Hatha yoga teacher training in 2013. I have also taken courses in nutrition, aromatherapy, energy modalities, coaching and additional modalities of massage and yoga.
