About Us

Schedule

All classes are a vigorous & soulful blend of Hatha + Vinyasa, taught from a Holistic viewpoint, utilizing elements of Bhakti, Ayurveda, and various spiritual practices to connect mind-body-Spirit. Aim of each class is to guide students to the innermost self via dynamic sequencing. Attention is directed toward present-moment awareness, conscious breathing, and mindful movement. Music is used throughout class to move students toward deeper states of self-awareness.

 

Core influences/inspirations: Five Mindfulness Trainings (as taught by Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh), Eight Limbs of Yoga (as outlined by Patanjali), Five Great Elements (per Ayurveda: Earth, Water, Fire, Air, Space), Seven Chakras (recognized by Chinese Medicine and Hatha Yoga), and the 5 Yamas (moral codes) and 5 Nimayas (self-disciplines) of Raja Yoga, which includes non-violence, truthfulness, non-stealing, contentment, and self-study. 

YOGA FOR RECOVERY classes specifically open, balance, harmonize, and heal areas of the body where people in recovery from addiction store tension and emotions. Focus is on the throat (self-expression, lack of trust, confidence), shoulders (burdens, responsibility), heart (sorrow, grief, loss), pelvis (sexual issues, conditioning), hips (betrayal, abandonment, judgment), and core (fears, control, relationships).

I am currently teaching full-time at a rehabilitation center for addiction recovery in Malibu. My book RECOVERY WITH YOGA: SUPPORTIVE PRACTICES FOR TRANSCENDING ADDICTION (Shambhala Publications), is now available worldwide through Penguin Random House. Feel free to contact me about availability and opportunities to teach and speak at public and private sessions, workshops, retreats, online events, and more. Please also sign up for my email newsletter to receive all updates, schedule changes, and other news.
