Joy’s path into yoga began after years of dance training, followed by a shoulder injury that led her to explore new ways of moving and healing. Yoga offered her a more intuitive, nourishing approach to embodiment. Over time, her love for music and sound naturally wove into her teaching, creating a seamless blend of movement, voice, and vibration.
With over 800 hours of yoga training, Joy teaches classes that unite mindfulness, intuitive flow, and live sound healing. Her use of voice, singing bowls, and instruments adds an immersive dimension that helps students connect on emotional and energetic levels. Joy encourages expression through movement and stillness alike, creating space for students to reconnect with their natural rhythm.
Why I Teach
Joy teaches to help others rediscover a sense of ease and joy in their bodies. Her classes invite presence, curiosity, and emotional awareness, with a focus on what feels good, not what looks good. Teaching is her way of offering healing, freedom, and connection, through music, movement, and mindful attention.
