I’m a Khmer American offering a personalized Hatha Yoga and iRest® Meditation in the East Bay of San Francisco. I have worked with a wide range of age groups from elementary and high school, to elderly folks traumatized by war. I also take my yoga journey to Siem Reap, Cambodia, on an annual basis and am currently working to provide more yoga and meditation in Khmer language.

Drawn to yoga since 1999 as a mean to destress from my job; I started teaching in 2009. In 2011, I completed the Svastha Yoga Certification with the Mohan Family while living in Singapore. With the iRest certification in October 2018, my approach for each session is best described as ”Yoga… for You." A comprehensive combination of warm-up with deep stretches, followed by moving meditation with appropriate asanas suggested. Pranayama and/or chanting meditation may be added depending on the needs of the moment. Breath awareness and body scanning are interwoven throughout the vinyasa krama. In completing the whole experience, practitioners are lovingly guided through nidra meditation with heartfelt intention into welcoming safely the entire content of one's being.
