With humble beginnings as a Jivamukti teacher at the former Jivamukti Yoga School in New York City, Esther currently teaches at various Jivamukti Yoga Schools and affiliate studios in Paris and Beirut at YogaSouk. When she’s not teaching Jivamukti Yoga you can find her volunteering as a Trauma Informed Yoga facilitator to young girls at a local orphanage in Beirut, as a HIV/AIDS counselor to children in California, and producing skateboard plays from Palestine to Brooklyn, NY. Esther’s experience as a practitioner and karma yogi informs her vision for students taking her class; one in which she desires to connect with others on their own path to a more compassionate, more mindful relationship to their community, to the natural world, and to themselves. Esther is deeply grateful for the teachings of yoga and the guidance of her teachers Rima Rabbath, Sharon Gannon, and Deepak Chopra.
