Movement is essential for a healthy life and longevity. By freeing our movement patterns, we also release emotions, stress, and limitations. My one-on-one movement sessions revolve around three modalities: Yoga - Qi Gong - Mobility.  Each modality targets specific boundaries and promotes full body health. The goal is to cultivate a body that moves freely, is strong, and is pain free. These sessions are beneficial for individuals dealing with chronic pain injuries, or health conditions that improve with movement, as well as those starting their movement journey or seeking a private teacher for ongoing growth. These practices stem from ancient traditions and have moved into the modern mobility techniques recognized today. Movement can be strengthening or releasing, invigorating or calming, challenging or meditative. Through adaptable body positioning, these practices foster an experience that leads to enhanced well-being. A movement session can include any or all of these modalities based on client's needs. Below is some information about each modality I offer,  and how they can help you achieve a free-moving, stress-free.

Movement

Vinyasa Flow

Movement and flow based yoga allows the person to achieve fluidity in their body through consistently moving through poses.  This allows for breathe control, fixing musculature imbalances, clearing the mind through connecting to the body, and strengthening the body and mind.  In it's simplest benefit, its a great workout.  

Beginners Yoga Series

Beginners yoga is for just those people who keep saying I want to do it but no idea what to do.   I have several series for beginner clients:

  • Studio Prep - learn the basics to get you into studio flow classes and confident in what to do when you begin classes. 

  • Deep stretch - this is a series that will help teach you at home poses that you can do daily to keep limber and reduce chances of injury or discomfort.  I take you through the proper form, the actual stretch and the different stages you will feel through the length of time you're in it. 

  • Home practice - learning yoga so you can create your own routines at home. Become knowledgable in many areas of yoga.  This is a long term study for those interested in learning on a student/teacher basis so that you can create a long term growth pattern in your practice. 

Therapeutic Yoga

This type of session is geared towards release and healing,  Its guided to your needs.  So if you have chronic or acute issues that you are dealing with, yoga can help in the therapeutic way.  Some common reasons to do therapeutic yoga are:

​

  • Muscle imbalances that cause discomfort and injury

  • Weakness in joints and movements

  • High stress levels

  • Health conditions that can be improved with movement and structural release

  • Mood and energy​

QI GONG
Qi Gong is an ancient Chinese movement practice.  It has also evolved over the centuries to become what it is today, stemming into many variations and lineages of practice.  In the U.S. you can find many examples of qi gong and different reasons for practicing it.  It can be described as a way to bring balance to the working energies of the body so that you can reestablish a freer way of moving and a healthier life. In my qi gong, we will use 'water' style movements, which is a calming style that helps reset your movement patterns in a gentle manner.

Some Benefits of qi gong are:
 

  • Freeing your movement patterns from old habitual movements that cause pain and discomfort

  • Teaching the body new, freer ways to react to stress. 

  • Recover from injury and chronic pain

  • Reduce mental stress and fatigue

  • Learn internal awareness

MOBILITY

Mobility is how freely we move while doing tasks.  

Through mobility exercises, you can find more freedom in movement.  

My mobility work involves a combination of stretches with movements.  

This creates healthy range of motion, activates unused and healthy muscle patterns,  and frees the fascia from constrictions
