Yoga Therapy is different from a typical yoga class that most people are familiar with, where everyone receives a “one-size-fits-all” instruction. A yoga therapy session is most often working one-on-one, where a therapist works individually with a client to develop a personalized practice to address their needs.

 

Yoga therapy sessions may include the use of movement, postures, sound, breath, visualization and meditation and other healing modalities. Yoga therapy may also take place in a group class, where the participants share a common injury or illness, but because of the larger numbers of students, individual needs may not be met as directly as when working one-to-one with a therapist.

 

Whether in a private session or group class, working with the yoga therapist, individuals become informed, active participants in creating their best life.
