I totally understand that physical touch is not for everyone. Please let me know at the beginning of each class if you prefer not to be adjusted. I also use a few drops of essential oils to perform a brief head, neck, and shoulder massage for a minute or two. No hard feelings; I will respect your privacy.

The physical part of practicing Yoga - asanas - multidirectional, low-impact and safe for joints and knees, improve flexibility, strength, balance, and posture. Breathing - prayanama - is one of the most important elements of my yoga classes as well.

In my yoga classes, I play calming, meditative and soft electronics, jazz, classical or afrobeats. Sound and music - key in my work!

Mobility training focuses on improving the range of motion and control of the joints through dynamic movements and exercises. It is often more targeted and functional, aiming to enhance athletic performance and daily activities. Yoga, on the other hand, combines physical postures, breath control, and meditation to promote overall physical and mental well-being. While both can improve flexibility, mobility training is more specialized for joint health and movement efficiency.

Prenatal yoga is specifically designed for pregnancy. It includes gentle stretching, breathing exercises, and relaxation techniques that are safe for both the mother and the baby.

This combination enhances relaxation, improves energy flow, and provides a holistic approach to well-being.

It can help manage symptoms, reduce stress, and improve overall quality of life. Always work with your healthcare provider when managing chronic conditions.

Reiki practitioners believe that life force energy flows through us and is what causes us to be alive. If one's life force energy is low or blocked, it can lead to illness and stress.

Share any specific concerns or health conditions only if you feel comfortable. Arrive a few minutes early to relax. Approach the session with an open mind and willingness to receive energy. Post-your treatment, drink plenty of water and keep a journal handy to capture any reflections or changes.
