For thousands of years, the tools and techniques of Yoga were shared between one teacher and one student. This direct relationship both allowed the practice to be adapted to the individual abilities and needs of the student and preserved Yoga as path towards liberation.
Whether you are just starting out and want to develop a solid base that goes beyond performing postures or you are a long-time practitioner seeking to develop a deeper embodiment of Yoga, individual sessions will support you to truly benefit from your practice on the mat and in your every day life.
The format and content of private lessons depends on your intentions, lifestyle, and commitment: I meet you where you are right now and support you to follow your intention, integrating any number of methods and modalities including:
asana
pranayama
meditation
Ayurveda
mantra
sound healing
massage
guided inquiry
While single sessions are possible, the real benefits come through dedication and discipline. I bring thousands of hours of experience guiding individuals in one-to-one and small group sessions. Anyone can "do" yoga, but learning to actually practice yoga requires the skillful guidance of a fellow traveler on the path.
My students have ranged from professional athletes seeking to enhance performance or heal from an injury to an octogenarian lifelong yogini who finds relief from arthritis during her weekly sessions. I've helped several students prepare for birth and traverse postpartum. I accompanied one through through cancer treatment until the final weeks of her life and support another who is in the last years of his life.
Sessions are offered at your home or mine, or online. Contact me to discuss timing and pricing options.
