Introduction: Every yoga teacher is unique in the way they lead their class. Therefore, it is really a personal preference when choosing a teacher. My primary focus is on safety from injury, as I understand how long it takes to come back from an injury. I offer modifications from the basic pose in both directions encouraging my students to use self awareness to find their own personal edge, always listening to what their body is telling them (maybe backing off, or perhaps working harder). I've been told that my Final Savasana (final pose of the class) stands out! I cover my students with a soft blanket and eye pillow as they drift into the final meditative pose of the day. Afterward they feel rested, with better mental clarity and focus. Hearing from my students about how yoga has changed their lives. Many of my students can't believe how much better their bodies feel when practicing yoga on a regular basis, 2-3 times a week. The personal satisfaction of hearing from happy students makes my heart fill with joy.

All About Skype L.

Apr 13, 2015

Gail led us in a number of hour-long yoga practice sessions over skype. We scheduled our classes in advance and Gail was always punctual and handled the sessions in a fun but professional manner. Gail is an excellent teacher. We are not experienced in yoga and Gail was able to give us modifications on some moves so we were able to feel successful even though our skill level and flexibility was limited. She didn't want us to have any injuries but wanted us to be able to practice at our own level. Our experience was wonderful but it would have been better if we were practicing yoga in person with her in her studio in Warren, OR. Thank you Gail we had an awesome experience.

Wonderful teacher. Helped me with my weakening old body with strength and balance. Breathing practice especially helps me center when ever I get tense and tighten up and forget to breath. All after only 1 session!! PFF--Ridgefield, WA

FAQs

What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I will continually re-educate myself in the field of yoga. In 2014 I received Therapeutic Yoga for Seniors certification from Duke Integrative Medicine in Durham, NC. I registered for this training because there are more and more studies available that confirm the benefits of yoga practice for aging adults. The studies are claiming improvements to cardiovascular health, osteoporosis, arthritis, scoliosis, diabetes, high blood pressure, reducing stress, and much more.
How did you get started doing this type of work?
I am a long-time yoga student with a dream of becoming a yoga teacher. My dream came true and now I've opened my own studio! I am blessed!
What types of customers have you worked with?
I not only teach group classes, but I teach private clients in their homes or in my studio. This service gives the client one-on-one instruction. A program that is designed specifically around their own personal goals. The sessions are generally 60 minutes long or longer and range between 2-3 times per week. I have many packaged pricing options available.
