Elevate through Yoga

with

Quick!– without dwelling…  

What is the first adjective you would use when describing youself? Physically? Emotionally? Spiritually?

If your answers are anything short of – Miraculous, balanced, and connected, please take a moment to ask yourself, “why”?  Then take another moment to ask yourself, “why not?” 

Envision this – you..loving who you are, embracing your strengths as well as your challenges. Picture your body as healthy, strong, and vital. Picture flowing gracefully through life and loving yourself so completely that nothing can sway you from your path. This can be your reality. But it doesn’t just happen. It takes determination, guidance and support.

Yoga is a system that can ultimately reveal the most elevated version of you. But it’s not one size fits all. How we practice is as important as why we practice.

Because of my deep commitment to my personal yoga practice I have an embodied understanding of the scope of yoga and how various practices influence the body, mind and spirit.

I am passionate about leading a vital and fulfilling life, and helping others to do the same. These are my offerings to you:

Offerings - either in person or virtual sessions live via zoom

private yoga lessons (for individual or groups) - a 75 min private class to meet your goals and needs. Emphasis on personalization, proper alignment and deepening your knowledge. $125 for individual, $125 plus $35 per each additional person.

private yoga consultation- We all have a personal constitution (dosha) which influences our well being. Yoga and Ayurvedic practices specifically for your personal dosha type can help bring you into balance - body, mind and spirit. During our session together we will craft a personal yoga plan as well as an Ayurvedic self care routine that will start you on your path to looking and feeling your best. $175 initial consultation

Private meditation lessons - Just like yoga, meditation can and should be individualized. Developing a regular meditation practice can be the most transformative practice of all. Creating a personalized practice will help you to address your challenges and meet your goals. $75, first session, $30 subsequent sessions.

40 day mentoring program - When you're ready to make a commitment to change, I’m here to support you. We’ll begin with a private consultation, followed by once weekly private yoga classes. (40 days is just shy of 6 weeks) - done either in person or virtually. During our first meeting, you will be given a short home practice (your OMwork) to be done daily. Your practice will be geared toward helping you achieve personal goals (physical, mental/emotional, spiritual) in a way that is accessible for you. You will receive tips and motivation via email each week and I will be available to answer questions and cheer you on! At the end of your 40 days, we will evaluate your progress and set you up with steps to continue on your path!

$650

3 month mentoring program - all of the above continued for 3 month with a second consultation after 40 days.

$1250

mentorship for new yoga teachers - After an initial 200hr yoga teacher training, many new teachers have challenges fully stepping into the role of yoga teacher. Especially in this day and age - if you’ve received your YTT either fully or partially on line, you may feel gaps in your education. This mentorship is for you if you’re feeling those gaps but are not quite ready to step into a 500hr ytt. I personally believe that a 500hr should not be attempted until you’ve given yourself time to digest and assimilate what you’ve learned in the 200 hr YTT (it can and should take at least a few years).

The hallmark of a great yoga teacher is one who lives by what they teach. We will begin by looking at your personal practice, your lifestyle and your dosha type (Ayurvedic constitution). Together, we will come up with a personal plan to keep you learning and growing as you realize your teaching goals.

Depending on your personal goals we will work on some or all of the following -

• Identifying and developing your personal strengths

• embracing, understanding and overcoming your personal challenges

• Creating unique, intelligent, transformational classes

• refining your cues

• theming your classes

• deepen your understanding of

  • 1. meditation

    2. yoga philosophy

    3. the energy body

    4. pranayama

    5. the energetics of asana

    6. mantra

    7. mudra

    8. etc, etc.

Pricing -

One time consultation (90 minutes) $125

40 day mentorship - $650

3 month mentorship - $1250
