About Victoria

Victoria first came to yoga while studying acting in New York City. After each "yoga for actors" class, she began to notice that she felt lighter, happier, and stronger. She continued to practice, and found that with a regular, devoted practice, she was better able to navigate the noisy, dirty commotion of city life- better able to see the natural beauty of the trees she had passed every day for years, but had never noticed were there.

Upon relocation to Philadelphia, Victoria struggled to find a studio to call home. One day, like a fairy-tale, she came upon Wake Up Yoga, and *instantly* knew she had found that new home. She enrolled in the teacher training program there, and has been teaching vinyasa-style yoga in the Philadelphia area since earning her certification. She also has found a new love...teaching private and group harmonium lessons.

Victoria is E-RYT registered with Yoga Alliance. She absolutely loves teaching yoga, and cherishes the opportunity to share her love and curiosity for the practice with others. She feels honored to take the seat of teacher, and extends reverence and gratitude to all of her teachers, and her teachers' teachers. Victoria enjoys living life, practicing yoga, and playing her harmonium for her classes...and sometimes for her dogs at home. She lives in Roxborough, Philadelphia with her amazing husband, Damian, their new son, River, and the dogs of her life, Frodo and Louie.
