Hi, I’m Libby (she/her) a mama, yoga teacher, and facilitator based in the New York Hudson Valley. I share yoga practices that create wholeness in the body, spaciousness in the mind, and compassion in the heart. I believe that you can live in your fullness when you move your body, breathe fully, and open your mind. I have completed over 800 hours of training and hold certifications as an E-RYT 200 hour and YACEP.
I offer vinyasa yoga, restorative yoga, yoga nidra, natal yoga, and guided meditation in both studio settings and for private clients. I support people in balancing their nervous system, tending to chronic health conditions, and healing the birthing body. I have offered yoga and meditation in a variety of settings including mental health outpatient programs, traumatic brain injury support groups, school classrooms, yoga studios, retreats, and in people’s homes.
I work closely with the birthing community, focusing on postpartum healing through yoga and holding space for mothers and birthing folks in circles. I offer private natal yoga sessions, public weekly studio natal classes, and a monthly mamas circle called Remember You.
I founded Setu Community (2017-23), an online yoga teacher directory and in-person community that bridged positive relationships across different identities. Through Setu, I hosted and programmed several yoga workshops, classes, and partnerships in the NYC metropolitan area. I was a lululemon ambassador in Brooklyn, NY from 2019 - 2022. I am the creator of the Show Up with Love: 25-hour restorative yoga teacher training, which is rooted in yogic philosophy, social justice, and embodied practice. I served on the board of The Practice Coalition, a non-profit providing trauma informed yoga for survivors of domestic and sexual violence in NYC. I have a MA in Art History and a BA English, Creative Writing.
