Private Yoga + Meditation

Private yoga + meditation instruction can be one of the best ways to begin, return to or advance your experience with yoga.

As a yoga student first, teacher second, I understand the challenges that can come up for us when beginning or maintaining a yoga practice or returning after a hiatus.

(Apprehension. Unease. Doubt. Anxiety. Guilt. Can you relate?)

While a yoga practice calms all of these, we have to first get on the mat to experience the relief yoga can provide.

If you’ve been curious about starting a yoga practice or wondering if yoga is for you (spoiler alert: it is), there is no better time than the present.

You deserve this meaningful time for you.

 
 

Private instruction might be just what you’re looking for if:

  • You’re new to yoga and want to learn correct postures without getting intimidated or feeling nervous by group setting

  • You want to begin a meditation practice but find it hard to start or haven’t developed your practice like you hoped

  • You want to incorporate yoga in your weight-loss or strength training program

  • You want to develop an at-home meditation or yoga practice

  • You have a specific health issue (like arthritis, depression, insomnia, cancer, anxiety, chronic pain) or injury (knee, shoulder, back) and want to learn proper modifications and safe poses

  • Your schedule doesn’t allow you to make studio class times or the class you want

  • You want to deepen your yoga practice and work towards specific goals (e.g. balance, stamina, strength)

  • You want to improve flexibility or chronic body tightness (tight hips, hamstring, backbends)

  • You’ve had a break from the mat and want to ease yourself back in

what to expect

AT Your Introductory session, we will talk about:

  • Your personal health history, prior yoga experience, and current lifestyle (of course, you are only expected to share what you are comfortable with)

  • What you are looking to receive from private yoga instruction (increased flexibility, stress relief, relaxation, confidence to join group classes, advanced poses/breathing techniques, guided meditation instruction, etc)

  • When and where sessions will take place (note additional fee may apply based on location)

  • Any yoga poses you love (or don’t love) to ensure your practice is tailored to your liking (you don’t have to know this upfront, especially if you’re new - we’ll learn as we go)

  • Yoga props (mat, blocks, blankets, bolsters, straps, eye pillows) are provided at the intro session, but for your best experience, it’s recommended to purchase a few basics to support your home practice

 

During Each private session:

  • We’ll review what we talked about previously and check in with how you’re feeling that day

  • Your session will be a customized blend of physical postures and movement (asana), breath exercises (pranayama) and meditation (dhyana), based on your goals and needs

  • Expect personalized alignment and verbal cues, and if you choose, hands-on adjustments & assists to deepen your experience

  • Feel comfortable to share what you’re feeling during the practice and what thoughts come up (if you wish)
