Sherry’s vision is to provide a warm and welcoming environment for the teachings of yoga to find us in our everyday lives. Sherry is a true sharer, she moves people to move out of their comfort zones and into the fire for healing. She does so with the heart of a warrior, and the touch of the mother. She believes greatly in the ancient teachings of yoga and how they seamlessly apply to modern living, our relationships and everyday life, and that the science of yoga in its fullness is a sacred path for healing, harmony and balance. She helps us realize this by exercising the yoga teachings within our physical, mental, emotional, intuitive and spiritual bodies in every practice.
