​Yoga for Happy Employees - Studies have shown that people are more productive when they feel relaxed and at ease.  Yoga is a great way to bring a community of people together and strengthen not our bonds with each other and our abilities to handle stress.  Yoga is only a small investment that can yield incredible returns. I specialize in going on-site to bring yoga to employees, residents, and whoever might need it.

Trauma-Sensitive Yoga/Mind-Body Resilience - Adverse and traumatic experiences affect the body and the breath as well as the mind. That’s why it’s so important to incorporate all three as we heal and build up our resiliency. Mind-Body Resilience Yoga is a way for all students, regardless of their background or physical abilities, to find centering and cultivate the toolkit that can help us with our day-to-day lives. All classes are taught in a welcoming and friendly way, with an emphasis on finding the right movement and poses that work best for you. Classes involve easy breathing exercises, basic yoga poses and stretching, and a short guided relaxation. No experience in yoga is necessary.

Prenatal Yoga - Pregnancy is a time of great transformation, great hope, and great challenge. Prenatal Yoga can help bolster the spirit, create a community of women going through the same life transition, and prepare the mind & body for birth.

All-Levels Vinyasa - Meaning "to place in a special way," a vinyasa class has a lot of movement -- which means a lot of chances to see what movement works best. From the vinyasa flows to the transitions between poses, it's about learning how your body moves and falling in love with the mechanics of your unique body.  Classes are always suited to the group, with an emphasis on little ways we can rediscover poses we know by heart.

Chair Yoga - Yoga is truly for everybody and every body. Classes are taught in a seated environment with the option of standing and using the chair for support. Perfect for assisted living facilities.

Yoga for Martial Artists - Martial arts and yoga have more in common than you'd think!  With a focus on mindfulness, deliberate breathing, and calm energy -- as well as building up strength, stability, and flexibility -- this class is a great addition to any martial art training.

Private Yoga Sessions - Develop your yoga practice one-on-one and in your own time.  Great for beginners and those who would like individual attention to their asanas.  Individual and group rates available.

Beginner's Kickboxing - It's the best of both worlds.  Learn form and technique like a traditional kickboxing class, but done so in a fun, low-risk environment set to good music like a cardio kickboxing class.  This fusion class is great for anyone who wants to try out kickboxing or wants to hone their form.

Tai Chi for Energy (8-Week Series) - Yang-24 (or "Simplified Form") was created to bring tai chi to everyone.  Come learn a form that is both relaxing and invigorating at the same time.  Each class, we will break down a particular section of the form, with explanations as to why we move the way we do -- and why, yes, tai chi is a martial art!
