I charge $95 per *information hidden*session at the studio. At the client's domicile it will vary with the times and costs of transportation. I offer discounts for 5 and 10-session packs, and I am also open to concessions for disadvantaged categories.

The first session will include an anatomical assessment of *information hidden*where I both get a debrief from the client on what they are feeling/perceiving in their body, ideally a summary medical history of preexisting conditions, and I get them to show me their best (safe) attempt at a series of postures, that give me an idea of their degree of flexibility, strength and overall fitness. I tend to do longer final relaxations/meditations than your usual studio yoga or ST class, unless differently agreed upon with the client.

Fully certified yoga instructor and stretch therapist, registered with Yoga Alliance US.

As a designer and programmer for years, I struggled with gradually worsening back pain, followed by hip and knee pain, and loss of mobility throughout. Rock climbing, yoga and stretch therapy have not only bettered my relationship with pain and, eventually, eliminated it - through the years, they have turned me into a very fit and active individual, and have also, and especially, bettered my relationship with my self, my body, my mind.

All ages and levels of fitness, people with chronic conditions, special needs kids, etc.

To ensure the professional has a good understanding of anatomy and, especially if dealing with a person in less of an ideal state of health and/or fitness, to ensure the professional knows the condition, the risks, and is well equipped to assist the practitioner and help keep them safe all throughout the training period.
