.: private yoga :.
Yoga is a South Asian practice that engages the body, mind, and spirit. My approach to yoga is in alignment with the body liberation and fat liberation movements— that we can explore yoga not to change our bodies, but to create a deeper relationship with them.
A private yoga session allows us to curate the practice to meet your specific needs, interests and curiosities. Group classes, even if they are as tailored as possible to the group, will inherently not be able to be as specific to each person.
I'm a big believer that people can adapt asanas (postures) in a way that meets them just as they are, while still honoring the roots of yoga. In that way, we approach our practice with ahimsa (non harm/anti-violence). I’m much more interested in folks discovering active choice making rather than passively following my cues. This gives people the chance to explore outside of an “autopilot” practice– and to discover for themselves what feels supportive and useful.
We can experiment with asana, pranayama, meditation, and beyond in order to discover a practice that feels right for you. Chair yoga or bed yoga are always an option. These private sessions also allow plenty of time to ask questions and reflect.
What I guide people towards is how to spend less time critiquing or policing their bodies, and more time discovering their body as a loving resource. From there, we can build relationships and take actions from a resourced and compassionate place.

.: pelvic floor yoga :.
Our pelvic floor can be a place of tension and discomfort, and it can also be a place of release and healing. Some people come to pelvic floor, yoga because of pelvic pain, incontinence, organ prolapse. Some people are seeking a deeper understanding and relationship with their pelvis.
Pelvic floor yoga dives into the specific muscles, organs, and movement patterns relating to the pelvic floor. We will asses your unique pelvic floor and explore asana, breath, and mudras that will support your needs.
As a queer person with endometriosis and pelvic pain, my formal training is underscored by my personal experience. We’ll hold space for the complexities of trauma, physical pain, gender, and sexuality as they relate to the pelvic floor. I understand the various ways HRT, gender affirming practices and surgeries might impact the pelvic floor.
If possible, I recommend doing in-person sessions for pelvic floor yoga. It can be particularly helpful to work in conjunction with a pelvic floor physical therapist, if that’s available to you.
