Yoga For Advancing Physical Practice
I understand the desire to improve the physical body through private yoga as I was drawn to yoga because of the challenge that comes with a physical practice. There are so many amazing benefits to being active in our bodies, and yoga is one of the best ways to incorporate physical activity with learning to be more mindful and centered. I am more than happy to work with you to achieve your goals towards developing a body-centered practice.
Check out the options I have below for types of practice or let me know if there is something else you are looking for!
Options for Practice
Advanced Hatha Vinyasa
Hatha yoga is one of the oldest and most commonly practiced lineages of yoga today. The practice emphasizes the strategic combination of movement, breath, and meditation. From Sanskrit, vinyasa translates to "to place in a specific way," or "to flow." A vinyasa practice aims to link together several poses in a series.
Together, we can work to create a flow that caters to your experience level. Learn a little bit of everything in these private sessions. Anatomy, breathing, meditation, advanced balance poses, classic yoga postures, introduction to inversions, and introduction to arm balances. This type of practice is great for anyone to do, and works for many different types of goals.
Inversions and Arm Balances
Though mastery of inversions and arm balances isn't the main goal of yoga, having a cool trick in your back pocket can be #goals. There are many variations of classic inversions, such as headstand, handstand, and forearm stand that can be modified to your practice. If arm balances are more your thing explore variations on crow, side crow, and flying pigeon.
If you are interested in advancing your physical practice through knowing how to do inversions and/or arm balances, we can work together to explore the mechanics of these advances postures. Even if we never go upside down, gain confidence in yourself and your body!
Yoga for Better Posture
Did you know that on average Americans spend about 7 hours looking at a screen each day?* If you think you fall into this category, then yoga for better posture might be for you. Being able to sit tall with a lengthened spine is important because as we age our body starts to loose muscular support, especially in our back. Training our bodies to effectively use our back muscles for support can greatly affect our mobility as we get older.
Together we can work to develop strength and mobility in your back, shoulders and hips- all key areas that affect your posture. Better posture is one step on the way to living a healthier life, and I want to help you get there!

Anatomical Emphasis
One of the things I love most about yoga is teaching the anatomy of the body. I find they body's function absolutely fascinating, and through my years of research, I gained a greater understanding and connection to my body. Knowing how your body functions shouldn't take having a medical degree, so allow me to help!
Private sessions with anatomical emphasis are great for athletes, personal trainers, martial artists, dancers, or anyone who is an anatomy buff. Whether you don't know much about how your body works or have spent years cultivating body awareness, these private sessions are for you.
