More about Meg
Meg has been a practitioner of both Buddhism and Yoga since the early 2000s. Having studied with a wide host of knowledge-holders in the States, Canada and India, Meg humbly uses the gifts of ancient wisdom as a gateway into our own understanding of the treasures that are Yoga & Buddhism. Meg completed RYT-200 with Samadhi Center in Denver and RYT-300 with the Himalayan Yoga Center in Goa, India. Her Tibetan Buddhist studies have been supported by Ani Pema Chodron, Tim Olmstead and various teachers of Tergar and Shambhala. Meg received the precepts, for lay monastic ordination, under Priest Reirin Gumbel, of the Soto Zen lineage, in September of 2024.
Meg offers a practice that is designed to shed light on how traditional forms can offer practical tools for modern urban life. Form and function is deeply classical and steeped in dharma teachings.
In 2019, Meg opened The Heart Revival Center for Belonging as a home for mindful living in community, including yoga, meditation and a study of how we may navigate that path together. As of June 2026, the Heart space transitions to new stewardship, with senior Yoga Teacher Rachael Holmes, as The Heart Center for Yoga, continuing its role as a place of sacred practice and gathering.
Meg will continue to teach embodiment classes at Heart Center, lead workshops and trainings, and host community meditation groups, "satsang".
