Classes

Therapeutic Classes:  We give extra attention to release the body and mind of tension, discomfort and pain.  We guide you through poses and breathing to assist you on your journey of health and healing. The classes are structured around themes such as shoulders, lower back, feet or pelvic floor. The theme changes regularly, allowing your practice to go deeper with the same theme while working different areas of the body. We go through common aches and tightness, arthritis, recovering from surgery, spine and neck issues, sciatica, wrist and hand problems.  With consistent practice you can decrease pain, increase strength and range of motion. Monday/Tuesday Chair/Thursday Chair/Friday 11am.

Life Coach Personal Sessions: Yoga was originally taught one teacher to one student. In a world of screens, noise, and hurried routines, returning to that model offers clarity, safety, and personal transformation. There are numerous reasons in today’s world to begin a practice in this tradition. We help you set goals and find ways to overcome obstacles, whether areas of health, career, and/or relationships. Invite happiness into your daily journey. 

Why choose one-on-one yoga:

• Individualized instruction: Practices are tailored to your body, goals, limitations, and learning pace. Modifications and progressions happen in real time.

• Deeper alignment and awareness: Close guidance helps you find safer, more effective alignment and refine subtle muscular and breath cues.

• Faster progress: Personalized feedback accelerates skill, strength, flexibility, balance, and breath control.

• Emotional and energetic support: As dedicated teachers we hold a confidential, compassionate space for stress release, self-exploration, and healing.

• Adaptable to life stages: Pregnancy, injury recovery, chronic conditions, aging, and athletic cross-training all benefit from a bespoke approach.

How a personal practice invites well-being into daily life

• Consistent small wins: Measurable improvements—less pain, better sleep, steadier breath—build confidence and joy.

• Presence and stress reduction: Focused practices cultivate calm, reduce reactivity, and create room for contentment.

• Sustainable habits: One-on-one guidance helps you design a practice that fits your schedule and preferences, making it easier to return each day.

• Integration beyond the mat: Breathwork, mindful movement, and daily rituals learned privately translate into better relationships, clearer thinking, andmore ease in routine tasks.

Getting started

• Clarify your intention: What do you want—flexibility, strength, stress relief, recovery, or a spiritual path?

• Choose a teacher who listens: We ask about your health history, goals, and current life demands, then proposes a realistic plan.

• Commit to small, regular sessions: Frequent short practices often yield more benefit than sporadic long ones.

• Keep an open mind: Progress may be physical, mental, or emotional—each is part of a happier, more balanced life.

Invite happiness into your daily journey by reclaiming the original, personalized tradition of yoga—one student, one teacher, one focused practice at a time.Appointments available Monday-Saturday, as early as 8am until 7pm.

Yoga Nidra Meditation:  Yoga Nidra is a sleep-based meditation designed to remove mental and emotional disturbance and rejuvenate the body. Yoga Nidra can be used for medical, restorative and spiritual benefits. As part of each of our sessions, we soothe jangled minds and bodies. You feel the relaxation of the breath, focusing on an intention and releasing a portion of your day beyond the Studio doors.

How it can invite happiness into your daily journey

• Small, consistent practices create measurable shifts in mood and resilience. A few minutes of breathwork or a short sequence at sunrise can reset your nervous system and anchor your day.

• Personalized practices are satisfying. When movement and breath match your abilities, you feel competent and encouraged — a reliable happiness boost.

• Improved body awareness reduces chronic discomfort, frees energy for things you love, and cultivates gratitude for what your body can do.

• Mindfulness cultivated through practice enhances presence, making ordinary moments richer and more joyful.

Resting on your yoga mat as in Savasana allows the meditation to continue with you through the unfolding of the day.  Schedule Yoga Nidra Meditation and enjoy the lasting benefits of calmness. 

Restorative Sessions:  Yoga was originally taught with one teacher and one student. In that intimate setting the practice became a personalized conversation — a careful exchange of breath, alignment, philosophy, and habit. Returning to that model today can bring clarity, safety, and depth that group classes often can’t.

Why begin restorative practices now?

• Personalized guidance: We observe your body, breath, and relaxation pattern, then tailor instruction to your goals which speeds progress.

• Deeper learning: You gain time to explore the subtleties of meditation and relaxation.

• Mental space and support: Private practice creates a confidential environment to address stress, anxiety, or chronic pain to support emotional wellbeing.

• Sustainable habit formation: With a teacher who understands your life rhythm, it’s easier to build a realistic, meditation practice which fits your schedule and energy.

• Accessible to all bodies and ages: We accommodate pregnancy, recovery from injury, mobility limits, or aging bodies without compromise.

• Integration of philosophy and lifestyle: A one-to-one exchange allows you to explore yoga’s ethical and philosophical dimensions in ways that feed everyday choices — sleep, diet, work habits, and relationships.

• You will be guided toward a healthier state of being. Rebuild and heal the body while calming the nervous system. The focus is on creating more receptivity through deep stretches while releasing muscular and inner tension. Melt into the support of blankets, blocks and bolsters to support the body in the poses.

• Explore what happens when you slowly release your habitual way of holding onto tightness and tension.

Reiki Sessions: Set a personal appointment to have a session with this ancient Japanese technique for stress reduction which promotes healing. Reiki treats the body, emotions, mind and spirit creating relaxation, feelings of peace, security and wellbeing.

Many individuals report experiencing various benefits from Reiki, including:

• Stress Reduced: allows anxiety to be lessened and increases mental clarity

• Emotional Healing: finding harmony for your energy and nervous system

• Physical Healing: lessens muscle tightness, digestive issues and headaches

• Enhanced Relaxation: Improves sleep which builds the immune system

  These benefits often extend beyond the length of a session.

Nutrition Sessions: We begin with your nutrition background and your lifestyle to create a plan that serves your unique needs. We coach you on sustainable weight management, anxiety and depression, reducing inflammation, cardiovascular health, low energy and fatigue, hormone balancing, and sugar addiction. We help you clarify your goals, identify the obstacles holding you back, and then come up with methods for overcoming each obstacle.

By creating these strategies, we target your unique skills and gifts. By helping you to make the most of your strengths, we provide the support you need to achieve long-lasting change.
