My mission is to make yoga and dance empowering experiences for students of all backgrounds as a way to build community and thrive.
Hi, I’m Sinnamon!
Driven to turn students on to the joy of movement and self-discovery, I am an experienced dancer, educator, and choreographer specializing in contemporary modern technique, composition, and improvisation. I have taught movement and fitness classes in gyms, Pilates studios, and public education for the past 25 years. Classical dance, Pilates, and Yoga training are all important tools that I use to meet my students where they are and help them understand healthy alignment. Originally from Long Beach, CA, I recently relocated to Bend, OR with my husband Erick and two children, Sofia and Emerson. We love the outdoors and spend our free time enjoying all of the lakes, mountains, and bike riding that Oregon has to offer.
Questions about my yoga/dance philosophy or classes in Bend?

Classes
YOGA
I believe that alignment is important but never for aesthetic purposes—I encourage students to approach yoga with a sense of humor, move with joy, and find ease while exploring the boundaries of their physicality. Students can expect thematic playlists paired with unique sequences that build strength and flexibility and emphasize transitions between poses. I always offer modifications for poses and provide a well-rounded mind/body workout.

DANCE
My dance classes are influenced by the foundations of modern dance and contemporary practices (e.g., release technique, GAGA, Countertechnique, etc.). They’re designed to help students move dynamically with proper alignment, easily transition on and off the floor, and play with musicality,
