Meet Your Guide to Magic & Movement ✨🌙

Welcome, I’m MJ! A seeker of light, weaver of dreams, and lifelong student of energy, movement, and magic. My path hasn’t always been easy. I’ve navigated trauma, chronic illness, and addiction, and it was through numerous dark nights of the soul that I found my way home to myself. Yoga, Yoga Nidra, Reiki, Magic and tarot became tools for healing and transformation, guiding me to reconnect with my body, awaken my intuition, and remember my worth.

I’ve been practicing yoga on and off since 2013, but everything changed when I got sober in 2022. That’s when the practice truly came alive for me, as a way to rewire my nervous system, nurture my spirit, and learn how to sit with myself in stillness and softness. I began studying more deeply and eventually felt called to share what had helped me so much.

I completed my 500-hour Yoga Teacher Training in Kathmandu, Nepal, where I studied Hatha, Ashtanga, Iyengar, Pranayama, Meditation, Bhakti, subtle body energetics, Ayurveda, and more. I also completed a 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training, Yoga Nidra training, and Reiki training at Samadhi Yoga Sangha in Denver. I’ve since continued studying Yoga Nidra under the esteemed Jeremy Wolf and Uma-Dinsmore Tuli. I hold a Level 2 Reiki certification. I especially love guiding practices that slow us down and help us reconnect like Yoga Nidra, Yin, Hatha, and Reiki-infused Restorative.

I have taught in The United States, Central America, Europe, and Asia, in various retreat, training, studio, workshop and festival settings.

When I’m not teaching or traveling, you can find me cozied up with a good book, snowboarding in the Rockies, dancing barefoot at festivals, painting something colorful, or adventuring in my off-grid solar-powered camper in Conifer, CO with my giant orange cat, Thiccaroni and Cheese (yes, that’s really his name) and a jungle of houseplants.

I believe in nervous system healing, spiritual play, and living life as ritual. I believe magic is real and that it lives in your breath, your body, and your becoming ✨
