Gabby found yoga during her college years as a way to quiet her active mind and feel more grounded in her body. She quickly fell in love with the way it made her feel both physically, mentally, and eventually spiritually. Upon graduating college in 2019, she traveled to India where she studied traditional Ashtanga yoga and pranayama.  After a few months of personal practice, she completed her 250 Hour Teacher Training in Ashtanga and Hatha yoga with Barat Shetty at IndeaYoga in Mysore, India. 

Gabby taught yoga for a year into the pandemic; however, she eventually took a break to focus on her own healing. Here, she explored other modalities such as breath work, yoga nidra, chanting and meditation. She is currently in the process of completing a breath work certification program in Portland, OR. 

Gabby loves weaving the philosophy of eastern yoga into her teaching. She is also fascinated by the intersection between psychology and yoga, and how we can use both to heal our minds and bodies. Gabby will be attending Pacifica Graduate Institute in the fall of 2024 studying a Masters in Depth Psychology. Her intent is to eventually combine somatic work with more traditional talk therapy. 

When she's not studying or teaching, Gabby loves to spend time with her Goldendoodle Beau, hike, cook, and paint. Gabby is excited and grateful to begin teaching in Ashland, and she looks forward to connecting deeper with the members of this community.
