Have you been considering booking a private session? Do you want to have more movement options, feel more open to life, and get to know yourself a bit better? Select a time slot for this free, 20-minute consultation so you can find out more, and I can answer any questions you might have before you book your first session.
If you'd prefer to schedule a phone call instead, please send me a note via the contact form below. Looking forward to hearing from you!
These sessions are held, 1-on-1, at Lake Breeze Wellness in Irondequoit. I also offer semi-private sessions (up to 3 students) and depending on your location, I can travel to you. To inquire about rates, packages, or if you have any other questions, feel free to contact me.
A private yoga session is tailored specifically to you. Maybe your doctor has cleared you to practice yoga, but you're feeling uncertain about attending a crowded studio class. You may feel you have certain limitations post-injury. Maybe you're currently dealing with stiff or achy joints, and you're ready to start building things back up. You might want to learn some new ways of looking at yoga poses so they feel like they're working for you. Or you might want to learn about certain aspects of yoga beyond the physical postures: breathing & mindfulness techniques, meditation, yoga philosophy; all useful for encouraging vitality and meeting the ever-moving energy of life.
Regardless of what brings you to a private session, my aim is to help you feel capable of meeting your daily tasks, learn to embrace the challenges that show up, and offer you guidance and support along the way. I love yoga and feel so lucky to be sharing what I've learned in my studies from my teachers and mentors, and my own experiences, to offer you a well-rounded practice, and to bolster the wonderful, innate qualities you already possess.

This in-person workshop is on Saturday, 10/25, from 5:00 - 6:30 PM, at Apricity Mind + Body Collective. Space is limited. Cost is $45. There is off-street parking behind the building.
In this Restorative Yoga workshop, you’ll practice the art of slowing down, listening in, and letting yourself feel supported enough to quiet your mind. We’ll start the workshop with some gentle movement then move through a series of supported yoga poses using a variety of props (blankets, straps, bolsters, blocks), depending on the pose. We’ll use the props, visualization, and some directed breathing techniques to bring you into a state of deep rest. This is NOT an active posture workshop; for the most part, the poses will be supported by props and held for an extended period of time (anywhere from 3-10 minutes).
Props will be provided.
Please feel free to reach out to me with any questions! I’m looking forward to offering you a space for some quiet and calm.
Instructions:
Please bring your yoga mat, an extra layer to keep yourself warm, and a cozy blanket, if you’d like. If you have an eye pillow, soft scarf, or hand towel, you could bring that to cover your eyes during savasana. Please arrive 5-10 minutes before the workshop starts to allow time to check in and get settled. Thank you!
Details:
"Inspiration: The Breath" is a yoga workshop that will focus on breath awareness techniques to bring a sense of spaciousness to your body, mind, & spirit. There will be an educational component to this workshop: We’ll take some time at the start of the workshop to discuss some breathing mechanics in relation to the primary breathing muscle, the diaphragm. The majority of the workshop will be spent learning through experiencing how it feels to move in rhythm with your breath, to embody your breath, and to work with some directed breathing practices in yoga poses in order to feel a little more alive. We’ll end the workshop with a guided meditation, followed by a restorative savasana.
Working with the breath in yoga practice can be one of the most profound ways to create positive changes in your life. It's not about fixing anything; it starts with just noticing. What happens to your body and breath when you are feeling calm versus in distress? What happens when you slow down enough to notice how you feel? What happens when you try some simple practices to help regulate your stress response?
Props will be provided.
Please reach out to me with any questions! I’m looking forward to providing a space for learning and experiencing.
Instructions:
Please bring your yoga mat and a journal or notebook if you'd like to jot down any notes along the way. Please arrive 5-10 minutes before the workshop starts to allow time to check in and get settled. Thank you!
It's that time of year again...come practice yoga outdoors and enjoy connecting to yourself & the beauty of nature!
This slow flow class is a “go with the flow” take on vinyasa. We’ll work on incorporating some novel movements into some traditional shapes. We’ll enjoy some fun & creative flows (sometimes with or without chaturanga, etc.!), and we’ll balance strengthening & stretching in this challenging & playful flow class. We'll end each class with savasana (final resting pose), our bodies resting on the ground under a canopy of sky!
This class takes place on the back patio at Lake Breeze Wellness (960-D Thomas Ave) in Irondequoit. You're welcome to purchase a drop-in pass for $20 (click the "register" button below) to attend a single class. If you're new to class, you can purchase a new student intro pass. There are also several multi-credit pass options if you plan on attending on a regular basis, or you can pay the cash drop-in rate of $18.00 on the day of class. In the case of inclement weather (or the possibility), I'll send an email (& text, if I have your number) at least one hour before class to let you know if class is cancelled or still on.
I suggest you bring your mat, a blanket or towel for cushioning, water, and sunscreen, if you need it. I'll provide the yoga belts & blocks. Can't wait to see you on the patio!
This is an ONLINE OFFERING that takes place every Friday from 9:00 - 9:45 AM.
This 45 minute class is the perfect “movement snack,” where we’ll focus on movements and methods to help us age well. We’ll work on dynamic balancing techniques, practice getting up & down from the floor, use body weight progressions, props as weights and tools to intensify stretches to gain better joint & body awareness, and we’ll always end the class with some satisfying stretches & savasana.
It's that time of year again...come practice yoga outdoors and enjoy connecting to yourself in the sunshine & fresh air!
In this class, we'll aim to develop a sense of body awareness and embrace some of the remarkable things you can do—move, focus, breathe—all with an attitude of curiosity and playfulness!

We'll end each class with some satisfying stretches and savasana (final resting pose), our bodies resting on the ground under a canopy of sky!
