Why?
Reasons to Consider Private Yoga Sessions
Are you brand new to yoga? You would like to join the neighborhood yoga studio or attend yoga classes at your gym? Private sessions are an excellent way to begin your own yoga practice. Develop your confidence by learning the fundamentals of yoga at your own pace. Ask questions when you like, take your time learning the poses, rest when you need to, and receive the individualised attention that you may not feel comfortable asking for in a group setting.
Would you like to deepen or strengthen your practice? Perhaps you are interested in understanding more about the ancient and broad teachings of Yoga. You may want to investigate more difficult poses or receive complete and detailed adjustments. Or there may be specific practices such as pranayama (breath work) or meditation that you would like to add to your practice. Private sessions allow us to tailor the teaching to your specific desires and inquiries.
Would you like to develop a home practice? You may be a beginner or experienced yogi who understands the benefits of a daily practice, but would like assistance developing one. Together we can create your own practice, working on your areas of interest such as alignment, sequencing, pranayama, meditation and/or the philosophical aspects of yoga.
Have you been away from Yoga for a while? You’ve had an active practice in the past but are just getting back into yoga, perhaps due to an illness or injury. Private sessions can allow us to reintegrate your body back into your practice while taking special care of your physical or emotional needs.
How do Private Yoga Sessions work?
We meet at your home or place of business. We will begin by discussing your needs, concerns, questions and goals. Then we work together, considering your individual situation, to develop a practice that is perfect for you.
How many times should we meet?
Ideally, we should plan to meet weekly or bi-weekly for a certain period of time, usually 3-6 months or more long term. This allows us time to reach your goals and address any deeper issues that may arise. However, we can work together to create a program that works with your schedule and budget.
What about semi-private lessons?
Practicing with 2 or 3 other students gives us a chance to develop healthy habits with friends, family, or co-workers and to bring more mindfulness and respect to those relationships. It offers a chance to inspire or be inspired by those around you. These sessions can be held in one of the participants’ homes, a rental space in a Yoga Studio or at your workplace.
