Health starts in the pelvis.
I offer students a diverse range of yoga, from vinyasa tune-ups to restorative, yin and somatic practices, but I specialize in yoga to support pelvic health. In addition to my work with pregnant and postpartum women, I work with men and women suffering from pelvic dysfunction and disease, including incontinence, persistent pelvic pain, pelvic cancers, sacroiliac (SI), and sciatic pain, chronic lower back complaint and functional interference related to the pelvis.
The beauty of yoga is that it meets us where we are. Through our practice, we meet our true self. In its fullness, yoga accepts both who we are, and who we would become.
Pelvic Health and Wellness
Therapeutic yoga is often a wonderful complement to medical and physical therapy care for pelvic disease and/or dysfunction. Did you know that tailored yoga sequencing can remedy many forms of incontinence, relieve and correct the symptoms of pelvic organ prolapse, pelvic pain conditions, and sciatica? Yes, it can. It can also help you live with cancer in the pelvic region, including prostate (I'm talking to you, men).
There are multiple ways to study yoga and be in practice with me.
Therapeutic Public Classes
I offer small group yoga therapy classes at Crossing Center (East Cobb); these are highly-tailored therapeutic offerings and pre-registration is required. I also teach accessible and vinyasa yoga at Vista Yoga in Atlanta, GA.
Private Yoga Therapy Sessions
For many students living with pelvic floor dysfunction, medical conditions, and/or trauma, private yoga therapy sessions are a first point of contact for therapeutic yoga, and an excellent complement to other care pathways such as mental health care.

Pathways of Care
I welcome referrals from clinicians in many different areas: physical therapy, oncology, reconstructive surgery, uro-gynecology, persistent pain care, sex therapy, mental health, as well as chiropractic, acupuncture, and dental care (yes, dental care).
When you refer to me, I will reach out to a client shortly thereafter (their journey has been long enough). I briefly help them understand what this kind of yoga is, and respond to any of their immediate questions.
