FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What is the difference between a studio yoga class and yoga therapy?
In a studio yoga class, the teacher compiles a sequence of postures ahead of time to create a generalized experience (i.e., beginner flow) which is aimed toward the group as a whole.
In yoga therapy, the therapist meets with you one on one and develops a personal practice for you which is specifically directed toward your goals and adjusted based on your ability and needs.
Do I need prior yoga experience?
You do not need to know anything about yoga or have any experience. All that is required is a desire to change or improve something about your life and a willingness to do the practice. The yoga therapist will be there to support you.
What if I have a physical injury or limitation, or a stiff body?
A yoga therapist is trained to make adjustments and modifications ensuring that you can work through your program comfortably, effectively, and without injury, regardless of your specific limits.
A yoga practice often improves stiffness and inflammation, which most people experience.
