PRIVATES

Private Sessions

 

Empower yourself with natural, healing tools for life with tailored one-to-one private yoga, meditation, ceremonial cacao and Ayurveda wellness sessions.

A private session allows you to set specific and personal goals – whether that’s mobility, mindfulness, stress or pain relief, alignment, balance, or tapping into the deeper wisdom and liberating tools offered by the ancient practice of yoga and meditation. I have worked with many clients over the last 5+ years, all who simply wanting to feel better in their body and mind and live their best life.No prior experience is required and I adjust our sessions (in person or virtually over Zoom) to fit where you are at. If you choose to book for a three week package, your sessions will be highly tailored and guided by a pre-assessment with takeaways from the yogic tradition to keep your practice alive. If you visit me at my home studio you will be invited to enjoy an organic tea or cup of ceremonial cacao – by the log fire for the colder months or on the lawn or hammock in the warmer months.

I am a certified advanced Level 2 Yoga Teacher in Hatha Tantra Yoga, Vinyasa Flow Yoga, Yin Yoga, Yin Therapy, Mindfulness, Vinyasa Krama, Anatomy and Modern Movement/Biomechanics, Vedic Philosophy, Yoga Sutras, Pranayama, Mantra, Meditation, Ayurveda, Restorative Yoga and Yoga Nidra.

I’m also a certified cermonial cacao facilitator, inducted into Reiki level 1, and trained in Kids Yoga Therapy. 

My teachings are informed by modern movement and biomechanics practices, as well as the wisdom originating from the great ancient sages of the East. Particularly Vedic philosophy, Tantric Hatha, and Ayurveda, natural scientific systems for living that has enriched my life over the last decade, and which I feel compelled to share with you.

CHAT WITH ME

"Everything about Simone’s yoga teaching is an invitation. An invitation to playfully, gently and lovingly explore. There are no rights or wrongs, or perfect yoga bodies. There is just you, and all that you are, enjoying yoga with Simone.

- Denise

"I love discovering all the things I didn’t think I could do with my body and I always leave feeling so much calmer and more in control than when I arrived. However, the most unexpected highlight for me is this lovely little community that exists there and the special connections I’ve made. Coming along to my first class was a challenge, I was anxious about all the ‘what ifs’. Funny to think about now, because the studio is definitely one of my happy places now."

- Hannah
