Yoga Therapy
Yoga therapy is most often done one-to-one. It's a whole-person approach to improve health & wellness, integrating yoga philosophy, breath, & asana into your daily life experience. Sessions can include: yoga therapy for overall health, for vocal health, for health of the teacher's voice, for general or performance anxiety.
