Ways to Work Together

Yoga therapy is an approach to yoga that considers the extensive range of resources and challenges within the body, mind, and spirit.
I’ve been working one-on-one with students since 2005. A customized yoga program meant to address a particular set of concerns can have a powerful impact on the healing process. Reduce symptoms, find relief, strengthen, create safe space, and tap into innate wisdom.
The tools learned through therapeutic yoga can be used again and again throughout life.
I have trained extensively to use a wide range of yoga tools (postures, breath work, meditation, visualization and sound healing) in order to support individual healing & strengthening on a wide range of issues ranging from anxiety & depression to strengthening a knee joint after an injury. Yoga therapy is complementary to and works in tandem with traditional western healing modalities.

For those who wish to honor significant life moments with a special yoga-based ceremony; I will dialogue with you to hone in on your special event, what matters most, ultimately creating a uniquely thoughtful exquisite experience you’ll never forget.
I creatively strategize to draw your community together and leave no one behind. I have guided practices for corporate leaders, couples, birthdays, graduations, baby blessings, candidates waiting for poll results, families grappling with death and illness, and so many more. I love shepherding folks through life’s thresholds.

Deep dive into sound and leave behind the constant churning of mind.
Inspired by my studies with TKV Desikachar, I guide you into a unique melding of chant and sound practice with deeply mindful postures, slow-flowing sequences and ultimately a divine spacious meditation experience. Practicing postures while simultaneously toning sounds or chanting opens the opportunity to be immersed more completely in the moment. The layering of your own voice with your asana practice brings forth a unique quality of presence and an embodied empowerment so we can speak up clearly and with more ease. Attunement to a specifically chosen healing intentionality intensifies. A state of inner spaciousness becomes accessible as the breath necessary to perform these practices is refined, extended and strengthened. These practices are aimed at development of breath, focus and energy expansion.
Some examples:
Especially in honor of 9/11 I offer “PEACE Practice” where the sanskrit word “Shanti” is woven throughout the posture experience. The effect is nothing less than profound.
To bring empowerment to the surface, especially for those seeking strength and courage, the mantra honoring Goddess Druga, “Om Dum Durga-ye Namaha” is chanted on the exhale as postures flow one to the next.
When opening to change, the mantra, “Om Namah Shivaya” honoring Lord Shiva may be ultilized to incredible effect.
