Looking for a magic wand? Wave it and make all your knee pain disappear?
Sadly, I don't have one. (If I did, I'd certainly wave it over you!)
Yoga is kind of magical though!
I share with you a modern yoga flow that builds strength in your legs, hips, core, and ankles—plus mobility and balance.
Build Strong, Stable Knees with Yoga that Works
Start Now
Smart, mindful movement that builds strength, eases tension, and leaves you feeling grounded.
Knees keeping you from your daily run, garden work, or hikes?
Tired of wobbling, weak knees or stiff hips holding you back?
Do stairs feel harder than they used to?
Do your knees complain after standing too long?
Unsure what to do to make it better?
Do you struggle with any of these?
I can help.
I’m the founder of No Knees Yoga and a 500-hour Registered Yoga Teacher (RYT). I’m also an active individual who understands how knee pain can slow you down and affect your ability to do what you love.
My yoga journey began many moons ago when I first discovered the calming power of yoga during lunchtime classes with coworkers. Those midday stretches sparked a lifelong love for yoga, and it’s been a steady thread woven in and out of my life—guiding me through different phases, including the joys and challenges of pregnancy.
Over the years, knee pain from cycling and running caused me to take a break from running, but yoga has become my tool for staying active without further strain on my knees. It helps me strengthen the muscles around my knees, prevent injury, and move with confidence. Yoga is how I stay active—whether it’s cycling, walking, or getting through daily tasks—without worrying about knee pain holding me back.
If you’re ready to move with confidence and ease—without letting knee pain control your life—I’m here to guide you through practices that help you stay strong, active, and pain-free.

So… Any Questions? Here Are Some Frequently Asked Questions.
Absolutely! We focus on strengthening the muscle groups that support the knee including quads, hamstrings, abductors, adductors, hips, glutes, feet, and core. We work on flexibility, mobility, and balance. This is good for most everyone.
Most of the time we use only a yoga mat. If your floor is carpeted, you might choose to skip using a mat altogether. Any mat or towel that doesn't slip will do. We often use yoga blocks (or stack of books) and a strap (towel or robe belt). Rarely I'll use a pillow or towel.
No problem. The replays will be emailed to you after class (within a few days) and are available to you to watch again and again.
No. Chanting isn't my jam, but if it is yours, go ahead as long as you are muted. :-)
I lead a balanced vinyasa flow with dynamic transitions and steady holds to build stamina, joint health, and inner calm.
Not chair yoga, but sequences are always designed with knees in mind, no knees on the mat. Ever.
If you are brand new to yoga, please check out my classes for beginners that walk you through the common poses and the breathwork techniques we use. My classes are designed for beginners through intermediate yogis and use poses that are applicable to a wide range of bodies. Advanced yogis are welcome to modify poses, if you need more of a challenge.
