According to the International Association of Yoga Therapists (IAYT), yoga therapy is the professional application of yoga principles and practices to promote health and well-being within a therapeutic relationship. But what does that actually look like for you?

Unlike a standard public class where everyone follows the same sequence, yoga therapy is a deeply individualized partnership. I begin with a comprehensive assessment of your physical architecture, your current life circumstances, and your personal goals. From there, I use the tools of yoga not just for fitness, but as a specific, targeted healing modality.

Whether you are looking to rehabilitate a physical injury, down-regulate chronic anxiety, or navigate deep energetic shifts, yoga therapy meets you exactly where you are.

My Approach

Rooted in the Shambhavananda Yoga tradition, my approach seamlessly blends ancient philosophy with modern science. Depending on your unique needs, I may draw upon:

• Biomechanics & Movement: Adapting physical postures specifically for your unique skeletal structure and joint health.

• Nervous System Regulation: Utilizing customized breathwork (Pranayama) and vagus nerve techniques to help shift your body from chronic stress into a state of safety.

• Meditation & Philosophy: Applying practical mindfulness tools to untangle deep-rooted patterns and anchor your daily intentions (Sankalpa).

• Targeted Sequence Building: Creating highly personalized, take-home practices so you can actively participate in your own healing between your sessions.

Healing is not one-size-fits-all. Below, you will find a few different pathways to practice, designed to support you whether you are seeking consistent community connection, a slow and steady therapeutic approach, or a highly focused 6-month transformation.
