What My Clients Say
After enjoying class for a few months, I knew I wanted to explore yoga more deeply. I decided to try private sessions with Renee, and like my earlier experience, I found this to be a good decision. An hour of individual work with Renee is physically and mentally challenging, invigorating, relaxing and at the same time, the focus on breath and emptying yourself out to connect to a wider energy is akin to a one hour vacation from the world. I have gained strength and improved flexibility and balance. I still have a long way to go, but I am looking forward to the journey with Renee knowing that she will encourage me but also make sure that I am making this my own practice. K.B.
Can Yoga Help With Weight Loss?
You don’t have to do hot yoga to achieve weight balance through yoga. Scientific studies have shown that yoga can help with weight management by helping you achieve lower stress and a greater sense of well-being. Stress causes cortisol to rise which can lead to health problems and weight gain, especially around the mid-section. By practicing yoga regularly, which often includes meditation and deep breathing, cortisol can be reduced helping you achieve your ideal weight and better health overall. Yoga also gets you in tune with your body, which helps you make better health choices. When you are feeling more at peace and happier within – you will take better care of yourself.
What My Clients Say
The yoga addition to my care plan with Renee was a wonderful surprise. I did not know that Renee offered this until the second or third time I saw her. When I told her I had always wanted to try yoga, but was intimidated by my size, she assured me that yoga is for everyone. Yoga with Renee has been life changing for me. I am much more centered and grounded, and feel so much more comfortable in my body. I have suffered from PTSD most of my adult life. Practicing yoga has allowed me to reconnect with myself in a profound and moving way. Yoga allows me to be in the present moment, even when challenging emotional issues come up. Renee’s gentle guidance and encouragement throughout our session together have shown me how powerful and beautiful my body can be. – Susan
Achieve Yoga Benefits More Quickly with Private or Semi-Private Sessions or a Family Program
Many beginner yoga students opt for private sessions to teach them the yoga asanas to feel more comfortable before joining a class. Renee also works with individuals and couples who want to take their yoga practices to the next level or who have physical challenges that require an individualized program. If you are interested in a private class or family session Renee can help your group with a customized program to improve fitness and vitality and reduce stress.
What My Clients Say
Here’s what one student had to say about doing private sessions with Renee:
“Magic happens in my private sessions with Renee. She crafts each session with care and skill, based upon my physical, emotional and mental needs of that day. Within the safe container of her intimate yoga studio, Renee leads me in pranayama and asana created especially for moving my energy. Afterwards, the alchemy continues, with 20 minutes or so of Reiki to further shift and integrate what the yoga practice initiated. I always leave feeling both more grounded and highly balanced. I look forward to continuing my journey with Renee as my able guide.” E.K.
“Renee created a nurturing and healing cocoon. I was able to just let go and find true peace.” – E. K.
“Thank you for all the wonderful benefits you provide through yoga – I really love your classes.” – Jane
