Private Individualized Therapeutic Yoga

Private Individualized Therapeutic Yoga Sessions offered by Amanda Brenner, E-RYT200

After many years of practicing and studying the different facets of yoga postures, Amanda now utilizes the physical practice of yoga as a healing modality. In a private session, Amanda will evaluate any physical concerns as well as related emotional and psychological effects to develop an individualized practice for the student. Though an issue may seem purely physical, Amanda approaches all issues in an individual from the perspective that he or she is a five-dimensional being (physical, energetic, mental, psychological, and spiritual) and with the understanding that these five dimensions are inter- connected. A practice that honors all five dimensions may consist of postures and movements, specific breathing techniques, vocalizations, and meditation, and is usually most effective when practiced daily. After a set period of time, a follow-up session will be scheduled to re-evaluate the individualized practice and re-adjust, if necessary. 

Individualized Therapeutic Yoga is recommended for those who have a physical limitation which may prevent them from attending a public class, including but not limited to the following conditions:

Arthritis
Fybromyalgia
Sciatica
Injury in muscles or joints
Loss of range of motion due to injury
Pregnancy
Excessive weight
Recovery from broken bone
Asthma, Emphysema, or other breath-related condition

Individualized Therapeutic Yoga is also helpful for those healthy individuals who could simply use a different perspective on areas in need of improvement or who have a strong interest in learning about the more subtle practices within yoga.
