There are many reasons to book a private lesson:

  • To assess your back care /therapeutic situation and determine which class at Samamkaya is best for you

  • As an adjunct to classes to get more specific feedback on your particular issues

  • For better focus in a one-on-one situation

  • Easier scheduling for the busy person

  • To address issues not addressed in the Back Care / Yoga for Scoliosis classes at Samamkaya in which I also have expertise such as:

    • Pre- and Post-natal yoga

    • Gynecological issues

    • Neuromuscular diseases such as MS, Parkinsons, Cerebal Palsy, and conditions such as TBI,

    • Cancer

    • Food and lifestyle counseling in the Macrobiotic tradition in conjunction with your yoga practice

    • Learning about and understanding your therapeutic situation through Experiential Anatomy
