Here is a bit about why I believe strongly that personal yoga is the cornerstone in making true emotional and physical progress and eliciting actual long-lasting changes.
Personal training is effective and targeted training. You and your needs decide the content, and when we practice, you can choose what you want to focus on. I teach from a deeply nourishing and warm place. One of my specialties is my ability to meet my clients where they are and make yoga accessible to everyone.
I have no agenda when we start our training together, and I am able to work with you, exactly where you are right now. It allows me to teach the aspects of yoga that will be most beneficial to you exactly right now, (and yes there are many different ones!) helping you to achieve balance in, not only the physical plane but in all areas of your life.
Taking a group class is both fun and uplifting, but training one-on-one with an experienced instructor is undoubtedly the best way to achieve results.
Many people give up yoga after attending group classes because:
- It seems too easy - and therefore boring.
- It feels too hard - and thus painful, scary, or embarrassing.
- Or it may be a good yoga class - but it is not tailored to your specific needs and challenges
The standing joke between yoga teachers is that every group class is in fact an exercise in teaching all levels of beginners to experts at exactly the same time! Just imagine a college professor trying to teach a complex math question to a mixed class of 5 graders to other professors at the same time! That is the challenge we all face as yoga teachers. But don’t get me wrong, I love teaching classes because I absolutely love and thrive with this kind of challenge, but that doesn’t mean it is the best solution for you!
Every one of us has our own personal history, old traumas, issues, and a personal focus on what we want and need right now. What is important to you? The reasons that you get on the mat? And what you desire to work in depth with right now? Is unique to you.
Yoga can, among other things, help with:
- stress reduction
- trauma release
- increased flexibility and strength
- greater body awareness
- improved breathing and lung capacity
- increased mindfulness
- rehabilitation after illness or injury
- improved sleep
- injury prevention
- meditation focus
- concentration focus and mental clarity
- generally increased well-being
- and much much more....
And with personal training, you can choose to work with a variety of themes:
- a thorough introduction to yoga that creates a stable foundation for your further practice.
- your current yoga practice and learn to go deeper into the poses.
- mindfulness and philosophy of life.
- find the yoga style and the poses, modifications, and variations that work for you.
- to focus on specific areas of the body.
- the breath to optimize your oxygen uptake, nervous system and reduce stress.
- mobility and stability poses to reduce pain, prevent injuries, and improve your balance.
- to be present in the moment, with increased mindfulness and reduced stress as a result.
The cool thing about yoga is, that you do not have to choose at all! In fact, just showing up yoga will give you exactly what you need, and let you develop at the pace and in the areas that are necessary for you to live the life you want.
All bodies are different, and your life story, mentally and physically, is yours alone. This is why 1 -1 training gives a much greater benefit than classes. Your training with me makes it possible not only to work with what you want to focus on but also with what we discover through our time together.
None of my private clients are identical and each one receives tailored training and guidance to help them work towards their personal goals; mental as well as physical.
