Emily's spiritual life became apparent when she began exploring Kundalini Yoga in 1992. Learning pranayama, meditation, sound healing and about the subtle/energetic bodies led her on a path of becoming a teacher and healer. With a consistent yoga and meditation practice she began furthering her trainings and offerings to include Reiki, Herbalism and Hatha yoga by 2004. In 2009, Emily completed her certification as a Kundalini Yoga teacher and, in addition to teaching in yoga centers, helped to develop and teach outreach programs that served clients with Dementia, Alzheimer’s Disease, and Autism. An intensive meditation training led her to travel and study in India, after which she began leading gong meditation events. She received training and certification in Kid's Yoga in 2011 and began teaching in schools. After managing Tumble Tees an entrepreneurial training and work program for at-risk and unhoused youth, Emily began leading yoga and sound healing for people at CASS (Central Arizona Shelter Services campus) starting in 2012. Since that time, her yoga classes and gong events have expanded around the Phoenix Valley serving diverse populations. With becoming a mother in 2014, she has developed further events that support mothers and families.
In addition to her yoga career, Emily has been a business owner and clothing designer, having owned and operated boutiques and been featured in local fashion shows.
