Founder

Building grounded learning spaces where movement, education, and people can take root.

Built From The Inside

For more than ten years, my work has lived where movement, teacher training, and entrepreneurship meet. I care about the big vision, but just as much about the small details that make people feel welcomed, supported, and ready to learn.

The businesses below are different chapters of that work: one new, one established, and both shaped by a belief that strong education begins with a thoughtful human experience.

Rooted Movement Pilates teacher training

Rooted Movement

Rooted Movement is the movement-education business I founded. I lead its vision and program direction and help shape the student experience from the first welcome through the full learning journey.

Candice is Rooted Movement's lead Pilates instructor. She leads the Pilates teaching, while I hold the founder role and the direction of the program and student experience.

Yoga teacher training at The Peaceful Warriors

The Peaceful Warriors

I co-founded The Peaceful Warriors Yoga School, an established home for yoga teacher training and continuing education. It is where I learned, in practice, how much care it takes to build a program, a team, and a community around a shared purpose.

That experience continues to shape how I build today: stay close to the students, be clear about what the program stands for, and let the work grow without losing its warmth.

A Founder Perspective

I also bring what I have learned into honest one-to-one conversations for people working through an idea, a business decision, or a next step.
