“Paradise is one of the most amazing instructors I have ever had and I have been practicing for over 20 years. Not only as an instructor, but as a person. She certainly knows her stuff when it comes to the practice and she is very helpful. But she is also kind and thoughtful and sincere, and one of the nicest people I have ever met, a true leader and a true friend. And I only just met her!”

-Anne Dulce

“Paradise is a beautiful human. She makes yoga both accessible to all and the right amount of challenging. She's able to read the group and offer physical and spiritual elements of yoga for a variety of needs/abilities. She also ensures everyone is included and cared for during the retreat.”

-Katie Binder

“Paradise is an amazing yoga teacher and human being. She structures her classes in such a way that when the class is completed, the students feel calm and rejuvenated, at the same time!

Paradise makes sure that all levels of yoga are considered and makes her classes accessible to all, while allowing for deeper work for those who need it.

She is incredibly kind and intuitive, and is a wonderful healer!”

-Jennifer Whitten

Hi. I’m Paradise!

I fell in love with Yoga over 20 years ago and have since reaped countless benefits from this rich and beautiful practice.

Yoga has improved every single one of my relationships, including my relationship with my body and myself!

I have a deep love and appreciation for this ancient practice and would love to share it with you!

Ten years ago today, I taught my very first yoga class to this incredible group of friends, including my friend behind the camera. I was so nervous—even though these were some of my closest people. I think the nerves came from how much I cared.
