This is a one or one or two student / one instructor session. There is no extra charge for a second person.

Students can decide to use the session as a private yoga lesson, for general movement analysis, gait /running analysis, posture analysis, yoga therapy or to focus on meditation.

These sessions are a fantastic way to:
- begin or deepen a yoga practice,
- create a home yoga practice or regular mobility routine
- gain direct feedback on poses, posture, general physical alignment or movement quality;
- create an exercise or strength-building plan or to receive general personal training;
- and to go deep on specific areas of focus (certain yoga poses, meditation, weight lifting techniques or fascia release).

Different instructors will bring different sets of skills to the table. Please read the bio of the staff member you are choosing to work with.
When you complete the intake form for this session, you can clarify which of the areas above you would like to focus on and your goals.

These sessions are not intended as a substitute for physical therapy or other medical care. A few differences between physical therapy sessions and these sessions:
1) The instructor for these sessions will NOT be operating under a physical therapy license
2) The instructor may use their hands to guide you into different movements or positions, but will not be performing any type of soft tissue, or joint mobilization to you. Nor will they be able to use dry needling or the extensive examination techniques of physical therapy.
3) Written documentation for physical therapy or licensed services is more extensive than for these sessions, as mandated by law. Your instructor may choose to document this session minimally or not at all.
