Her yogic and healing arts studies started in 2002, and have taken her around the world.

The work Brandi shares is with the intention that everyone can embody their highest and most authentic frequency. Activating and connecting to this leads to claiming our role in self-healing, helping each other, and healing for Mother Earth. 

  • "This weekend left me feeling held, by source and the universe at large— which is a feeling I had been struggling with, particularly after so much pain and loss. To regain a sense of trust in myself, and to rebuild trust that the universe and all of my guides want the best for me, is a gift that is invaluable. To feel empowered to be able to access healing and guidance for myself feels like a superpower right now. Thank you, from the depths of my soul."

  • "After taking Brandi's vinyasa class for a couple of years I felt drawn to her Reiki 1 training. As one may expect, she is an incredible Reiki Master and trainer. This was an unbelievably moving experience, in such a loving group, beautifully led by sweet Brandi. Grounding, elevating, and refreshing. I've brought what I learned in our training into my daily routine, and one week later, I'm already noticing the way healing Reiki energy is uplifting me and those around me. Also, the Portal Marin is a truly magical space and the perfect location for Reiki training. 10/10 recommend"

  • "Taking Reiki 1 with Brandi was a deeply enriching and healing experience. Hearing from her directly was incredibly helpful—she is such a gifted and experienced teacher, full of wisdom and insight. Her deep understanding of Reiki and its healing power was evident in every part of the class, and the energy she shared was both grounding and transformative. Brandi’s knowledge of clairvoyance added an extra layer of depth and spiritual connection, making the experience even more powerful. I’m grateful for the space she created and the profound sense of support, clarity, and healing I walked away with."
