Personalized Yoga Instruction

Check out our calendar for current Youngstown Yoga Class Schedule! I offer small classes in my home studio for up to five students. Join one of the existing classes, or get together a small group and request a new class time.

Finally, people in the Youngstown, Ohio, area can enjoy the luxury of personalized Yoga Instruction and small group classes.

Millions of people have found relaxation, gained strength and increased flexibility through yoga.

I offer personalized sessions for individuals and small groups right in your home or office. With over ten years of yoga practice, I have taught small groups and individuals in Virginia, New York and Ohio. Yoga has helped me manage stress, increase flexibility and promote relaxation for many years; let me help you experience the benefits of a regular yoga practice.

Training

I was a teenage klutz, and a woefully uncoordinated child. At 16 I began
studying yoga. I had known about yoga my whole life. My mother practiced
yoga and I had taken the occasional class, but you don’t really begin to
understand yoga until you undertake a regular practice.

At 16 I started a practice with Shirl Swan-Mock. Slowly, I became more
centered and invested in my body; I gained awareness of the connection between
my physicality, mind and spirit. From this awareness I gained some measure
of physical grace and balance.

Instruction

I see Yoga as a meditation in motion. The grace and flexibility yoga imparts
is the beautiful icing on the cake. A yoga practice should give you an
intimate understanding of your body and leave you feeling pleasantly spent and
spiritually refreshed.

Yoga can be gentle as a summer breeze or strong as the Santa Anna Winds, but
the balance of breath, mindfulness and careful instruction will carry students
through.

I like two levels of teaching, gentle beginners and a more active “power
yoga.” Both classes should be challenging for all levels of students, but
with different goals.
