I love teaching both group and private yoga classes to beginners and intermediate students alike. Even if you feel like you are “too stiff” for yoga, you are in the right place!
If you would prefer to take a private lesson (or a few!) before joining group yoga classes, that’s often a great place to start! That way, we can adjust poses and breathing practices for your individual needs, abilities, and/or injuries. You can certainly continue private lessons indefinitely or join a group class.
I do recommend a minimum of four private classes held once a week to begin to develop the practice habit and to begin to see the effects on your body, mind, and spirit. Private lessons can be scheduled at your convenience between 9 AM and 8 PM Tuesday-Thursday, Saturday, Sunday.
Private classes and group classes can be booked online here.
You might wonder what “kind” of yoga I teach… Well, the simplest answer is that I have been influenced by many teachers over the years, and they have all “spiced” the dish that I offer.
When I say “Hatha” I am referring to movement-based classes that balance the energies of stimulating and energizing with the energies of cooling and soothing. These classes will also include “Pranayama,” or breathing exercises, specifically chosen to complement the movement practices we are doing. Meditation will oftentimes be included.
When I say “Restorative” I am referring to posture classes that utilize props in a specific way, in order to minimize sensation in the posture so that you can relax into the shape we are creating without effort. In these types of classes, it is not uncommon to fall asleep. We jokingly refer to it as “adult nap time!”
When I say “Yin” I am referring to posture classes that focus on applying mild to moderate stress to the joints of the body (as opposed to the muscular tissues specifically), and in so doing, you relax the muscles in the target area, allowing for maintenance of the health and usability of connective tissues and joints.

My current group teaching schedule (Fall 2021):
Wednesday 6-7 PM – All Levels Hatha Yoga at Bellelune Massage and Yoga
- An invigorating yet steady flow that will awaken total mind-body connection and ease of motion. All levels welcome. Beginners will be led gently and advanced enthusiasts will be given opportunities to deepen the practice. Each class includes flow sequences as well as time to ‘just be’ in the poses – new focus postures will be explored in each class and then woven into the flow. Focus and attention to proper alignment during flow is taught with specific and individualized attention for each participant, giving you the freedom to do your version of the poses. Conscious breathing and awareness of energy are emphasized throughout.

Saturday 11 AM – 12 PM – Gentle Hatha Yoga at Bellelune
- Whether you are a beginner or you are simply seeking a softer practice, this is the class for you! We will practice poses and breathing techniques that calm and soothe the mind and body. Much of the practice is done laying on your back and from a hands and knees position.
Sunday 2-3:15 PM – Yin Yoga at AlleyCat (1x/month) – Upcoming 2021 Dates: Oct 10, Nov 14
- Yin Yoga is a complementary yoga practice to the more dynamic and invigorating yoga styles that are predominant today. Some call it the “other half of yoga.” In Yin Yoga, floor postures are held passively for several minutes in order to access a safe and positive ‘stress’ on the deep layers of connective tissue in the body. Physically, Yin Yoga restores and maintains the natural mobility of the joints, primarily between the navel and the knees.
