Want to destress at your desk or practice yoga in your chair?

Try this chair yoga sequence I just uploaded to my youtube channel! It's a gentle 35 minute sequence - do as much or as little that you have time for 🙂

This sequence in particular focuses mainly on range of motion in the spine and neck. Let me know how it goes!

In this fairly gentle 35 minute chair yoga practice, we focus on movements that work with spine mobility and some strengthening of muscles surrounding the lo...

I'm running a special for my pre-recorded Pelvic Health + Yoga workshop:

25% with code PELVICHEALTH2022

No yoga teaching experience needed. Very little yoga knowledge needed!

For all bodies and identities.

In this workshop you will learn why pelvic health is important, some basic anatomy of the pelvis and the pelvic floor muscles, common issues within the pelvis, pranayama breathwork and massage practices for self-inquiry, as well as asanas (yoga poses) to help embody this sacred space depending on what you may need. Learn how to examine your own posture to aid in pelvic health.

Please consult a pelvic floor physical therapist in your area to inquire more about what your specific pelvis needs. This workshop is meant to aid in illuminating the unknown about the pelvis to empower you in everyday life and so that you can ask the right questions going into a healthcare setting if need be.

Let me know if you have any questions!

Today from 5-5:40 pm! We will go on an arctic exploration for our children's yoga adventure.

It's crucial to teach our younger generations about the beauty of the arctic while this amazing habitat is still here on earth.

We can teach our children about important concepts in our world in a way that will ignite compassion and action, rather than fear and paralysis.

Children learn by experiencing their world using all of their senses.

Through movement and sequential storyline, children can acquire knowledge (not just academic knowledge, but social-emotional knowledge too) by doing - through experiential learning - and most importantly by having fun.

These yoga adventures empower children to be lifelong lovers of learning and the environment - all while the children learn how to move their bodies in space.

I could truly go on about the benefits of movement - especially mindful yoga movement - and learning for children.

To learn more about the yoga adventures, please reach out to me or visit my website!
