Private instruction is available by appointment only. These classes are ideal for those with back and spinal problems due to Scoliosis, injuries or chronic body misuse. The sessions are designed to assess and work with those special issues or difficulties which require a one on one, personal format.
Yohana, the Studio Director, will help you analyze your posture and the various imbalances and misalignments in your body, while giving you the tools to correct them through yoga. During the private sessions, the student will strengthen or balance weaker areas of the body and will leave with a better knowledge of their body and movement.
Fees: $75 - 1 Hour; $40 - 30 Minutes
