Private Individual or Group Yoga Classes - Adults or Children
While public group yoga classes have their place, they are limited in how directly they can serve an individual's unique physical, mental, cultural, energetic, and other situation. And unless designed specifically as such, they are limited in how they can serve a group of people with specific needs.
Private Individual Yoga Classes
Traditionally, yoga was taught 1:1 so the teacher could provide teachings based on the student's needs and goals. A specific program is developed that the student follows on a daily basis. In regular consultations with the teacher, the student provides feedback, and the practice becomes a living, breathing entity that evolves and changes with the student's needs. In this way, the value of an individualized practice far outweighs that of a generalized practice, and in this method of learning, the student's ability to progress and meet their personal requirements and goals is accelerated. Today, students may choose to meet with a teacher for very specific learning -- for example, how to meditate, chant, use effective breath work, or understand a specific type of posture as it relates to the needs present in their body. Or, they might choose to meet with a teacher for the overall evolution of their practice.

For class at another location, cost will be dependent on a number of factors, including whether the session is private or semi-private, location and number of participants. To begin on your personal journey or your group's exploration of how yoga can serve your needs & goals, contact Stephanie.

Private Group Yoga Classes
Similarly, a group of people with specific needs might be interested in creating a private group session to address those needs. While the practice might be generalized for the group on some levels, the benefit of having the class geared towards the most prevalent over-arching need would be the focus in this type of practice. For example, students that are generally well and able bodied, but that are deaf or hard of hearing, might choose to create a DF/HOH group class and enjoy not having to try to figure out the instructions of a roaming teacher in a large, public group setting. Another of many examples is a group of people affected by abuse. The benefits of yoga can be an immense help in overcoming their trauma, but neither a private individual, nor public group class are necessarily appropriate, but a private group class in a safe environment, with people they already know in the same practice group might be the right practice scenario for some.

Stephanie taught me the art of meditation, self-realization and proper breathing, which can be used beyond yoga practice. She incorporated philosophies of yoga into her own life and was a great example in guiding me toward balance and a healthier lifestyle. Few people make a lasting impression, I feel truly blessed to have crossed paths with Stephanie. Namaste! --Julia
