Donna Rixmann Ayurvedic Yoga Therapy

Donna teaches at various locations in El Dorado Hills, Folsom and Sacramento. Her most recent achievement is completion of her yoga therapy coursework.

Instruction is detailed and slow and modifications are given as needed to newer students or students with physical limitations. Donna Rixmann’s
yoga therapy and teaching practice is derived from the Viniyoga™ style of yoga. Her teacher, Gary Kraftsow, is the Director of the American Viniyoga Institute (AVI). Viniyoga is a breath-centered yoga that improves the effect of the poses to deepen the experience physically, mentally and emotionally. As students mature, free-standing breath practices (pranayama) and meditation (dhyana) practices are also introduced to calm the mind and improve focus. She is now an AVI certified yoga therapist (450 hours). Her initial training was a challenging 700-hour teacher training directed by Georg Feuerstein, a pre-eminent yoga scholar. She has also studied in Allahabad, India campus of the Himalayan Institute (Rolf Sovik and Sandra Anderson) and received a second 500-level teacher certification. She is a member of the International Association of Yoga Therapists and a Registered Yoga Teacher at the E-RYT 500-hour level through the Yoga Alliance (with over 3000 documented hours of teaching experience) since January 2002. Donna's public class schedule is primarily based in El Dorado Hills and Folsom (typically under 12 participants). She does adaptive yoga classes for special populations (MS/Cancer) and yoga workshops on a variety of conditions. She adapts yoga postures in public classes so that the benefits of the practice are accessible to all levels. Donna partners with her private clients to develop daily practices that support personal goals, addressing physical, physiological issue and psycho-emotional challenges.

Plan to take a walk today. Noticing what is coming in through your senses to enjoy the moment; birds singing, the touch of the wind on your skin, the fragrance of a fireplace or pine needles. Leave the cell phone at home. Look around you. Be alive.

!Let it go! Did you know - Ayurveda says that if you have a physical urge like hiccups, burping, the need to urinate or evacuate, that you should honor that and not hold it in…even if it’s passing gas ( JLMKSICSO*). *Just let me know so I can step outside
